Trying to find something to do while there is still snow on the ground.  Our 56 sunliner has a repro "script" type battery.  Case is all black, red caps.

I thought i had read a while ago that the factory batteries had the script and other lettering painted a bright yellow, and that replacements were unpainted?  Can anybody confirm or refute that?  Im thinking of painting the script (assuming Id use yellow testors enamel & a firm roller?)....just 'cause theres snow outside, and the wife took the kid out for the day - got a whole day to myself!

Thanks!

if your battery is a 29nf the caps and script are red Ford also offered a 32nf premium battery that had yellow caps and script. hope this helps.

THANK YOU!  That corroborates info i got from someone else.  My battery has red caps, so i guess red script it is!
