Last I looked, Doc, mine was solid under where the battery tray was suposed to be. I opened the hood one day to drop in a new battery to get the car started(after 10 years, it started RIGHT up! I love AMC!) and move it onto a trailer to get some air in the tires and some fresh gas in the tank, I noticed the entire tray had dissolved into about 4 large clumps about 1"x1-1/2" and the rest was dust. I swept it out of there and it looked solid. Its still holding a battery on the fender well 2 years later. Thanks for the warning though. -Dave ===== D.G. 713 __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
