I was wondering if any of you guys on here who own one of these cars could measure up the battery tray for me so I can build one for my car. Thanks

Thanks Tony, I was wonder if I could get the exact dimensions of the battery tray so I can build one exactly.

Here are the Mini Mags and Grand Prix's I picked up from Tony. They are in pretty nice shape and should work out nice on this resto.
