Battery hold down

[jerryt]

I just got my 1926 model t to start. But I have a dilemma. The battery I have in the battery box under the passenger side doesn’t have battery hold down provision. Any ideas? I am using a 26 series 12 volt battery.
Thanks
Jerry

Just don't hit any bad bumps too fast!

In my '15 (which doesn't have electric start- battery is for powering the coils only on start up), prior owner jerry-rigged a battery box under he rear floorboards. The floorboards themselves are the hold down for the battery. In other words, they rest right on the top of the battery, and keep it from up and down motion.

Bungie cords can keep a wayward battery down.
