It's been a long time coming. Ive had the new battery tray for over 7 years (That's actually the last time I had any money to buy anything) and I finally removed the old one. The new sits in place just fine, but I still need to weld it in.
The old was was in worse shape than I remembered it being (shocked?). Its been since 97 that I parked the '6 for restoration. That was when I tore it completely apart. I've been through 3 moves since then and finally have the time and a bit more ambition.
