What have you done today with your Austin Seven
Found out why my battery won't hold charge... oops. Still could be worse, only eaten a 2" hole in the scuttle. Today's job is to effect a  repair.

Disappointed that the battery lasted only 3 years despite my efforts to keep it topped up on a smart charger. The previous Lincoln battery lasted much better,  but I couldn't get one shipped with acid this time.

Can anyone with a Ruby show me how the strap secures the battery,  particularly given that the speedo cable is against the side I'd thought it was clamped to.

Finally, does anyone know if there's a reproduction battray or something similar? It's not doing its job any more!
