[DeTomaso] Battery hold down

[Mike Drew]

Rich,

Nobody except you would know your car was ‘wrong’ with a second series hold down. 

And as you are standing alongside your as it burns to the ground, nobody is going to stop and console you by saying, ‘at least your car used to have a first series hold down’. 

Get the second series. :)
