It just looked like the wire would chaff over time the way we routed it. Unless you are getting bad reception I wouldn't mess with the antenna just yet.
On the Neg battery wire, ust pull the OEM bolt and replace it with a new hex head bolt, the wire itself looked okay. I was afraid I would strip the threads on the old bolt if I tightened it any more than I did, they are corroded pretty bad.
Are the hold downs still in good metal? If the tray has cancer that would worry me. Having a battery loose in the engine compartment could lead to all kinds of merriment.
The TRAY is still stable, but it will need to be rebuilt and or replaced.
However, ill have to re locate the battery (possibly) with the V8 swap. I dont really wanna rebuild it, then have to do it over agiain in a few months.
Ill take a look at it again see if I cant whip something up before FRIDAY!
Im getting pretty ITCHY to go!
