We had a nice 55f day here. Perfect for taking the Packard out. But sadly, my 10 year old Diehard Group 24 didn't survive the winter. She lived a long life, but alas, she is no more.

Luckily, the Advanced Auto near my house had a Autocraft Silver Group 24FT battery that fit perfectly in the battery tray with the hold-down. TIP: the Autocraft Gold series ones do not fit as the side handles block the hold-down. This is why I always take the hold-down in to verify. The Silver ones do now have the side handles.

Anyways, with that battery swapped out, she started right up, and we were off for a nice little drive. Fluid changes are due before spring driving commences.
