| We're gonna try starting the 57 Chrysler New Yorker this weekend. The current battery is dead and not the correct battery for that car.
What was the correct original battery for that car? I figgured that since I have to get one I may as well get the CORRECT one. Thanks. |

Price????? $500 + Shipping.
That's a lil too Pure for my blood, and besides it would clash with my Red engine
What ever battery you buy, you should have it hooked to a charger whilst ya doing all that cranking
easier on a new battery.
