Walter,
In my 56 Dodge, and most 56 Mopars I think, the standard battery is a Group
24 (10 inches long). Some (maybe standard on all Chryslers/Imperials?) had
an optional Group 27 (12 inches long) battery option, with longer rubber
trays and hold down brackets. The hold down points are in the same location.
I found a longer one for my Dodge in a salvage yard.

Subject: [FWDLK] Battery Hold Down
Would anyone have a battery hold down bracket for a late 50 early 60 mopar.
I have a battery for an early 60 mopar that I want to use in my 56 desoto.
The bracket in that car is too small but it will fit in the tray. I wanted
to make somewhat for the right time but even if I can find a 56 I could cut
it and extend it. The battery I have is
6 3/4" X 12". Thanks
