Bought for my 1960 C1 a battery tray kit (tray, hold down and bolts). Mounted the tray (so the ends were tack welded in place) and then decided that I was going to position the battery in the trunk...so no need for the battery tray and accessories.......$75 plus shipping
Also bought a stainless steel brake line set, put the pieces in place and realized that I was far more different from stock than I stopped to think about (live and learn...DUH!!!), at any rate this is also for my 1960 C1. Complete setI have put the pieces in place and finger tightened the various joints, nothing was torqued down. I was trying to see where everything went. realized that with my Myers front end as well as disc brakes all around that the kit wasn't going to get me far and have since decided to build my own (ok, I am really worried now, never having done this before either!). At any rate SS brake lines at a good price of $80 plus shipping (they are not heavy, but come in a big BOX. One or two of the brake lines have predetermined places where the lines are bent to facilitate shipping, this is no big deal. My problem was that I wanted a tight fit and with the Myers front end AND lower motor mounts (not the conventional ones that attach via the water pump area), it is different enough that I realized that I need to make my own to get a tight fit.
If someone buys them both, good chance of saving on shipping........
