I went to the garage today to work on my WD and found that my Father In-law had made me a new battery box and tool box! Those were the last two things I needed to get, to finish the old girl up.

When it comes to battery boxes for six volt systems, I wish someone would make them 1/2" to 1" deeper so they would work easier with the heavy cables we need to use.
Most problems can be solved with the proper application of high explosives.

My Father-In-Law worked in a welding shop for 53 years.  He died a few years back, before I started fixing A-C's.  Sure wish he was still around.  Give that man a man sized hug!  You're lucky to have him!

Ted is that wishful thinking or are you wanting one. I should be able to make one, just need the plans/drawing.
