Congrats !!

Your battery is a group 78 (side terminal only)...behind left rear wheel. I have also used group 75 (side terminal only) without problems.

Congrats on your new car and your new garage. Both look great. You will need several cars to fill that big garage. What else will be going in there?

I would not be sad if you posted a couple pics of the OH-9 ACR. Looks cool in that color scheme.

Thanks for comments,retirement is good,but I have not worked so hard in a long time.(not much free time to enjoy car)Myself and one of my brothers did all work on shop,footings,block work,framing,trusses etc.Only had a crew in for concrete slab...47 yards of cement,knew we could not do proper finishing of such a large slab.Now finishing up electrical,starting insulation.Doors should be here Monday.Heres a couple picts of OH-9 ACR(I like that!)for SilverAcrDSC04326.jpgDSC04544.jpgDSC04547.jpg
