I previously posted a thread about batteries for TR3As because my Optima battery was getting old - no problems - just way past it's projected useful life.
Well - it happened - went out to start my car a little while ago - so dead it didn't even groan.
I was going to try to find a more authentic looking battery - but had such good luck with the Optima battery (red top) that I think I'll just replace it with another Optima and order a Tar Topper to cover the modern look of the Optima battery.
My question is - the Tar Topper offers the covers with fake filler plugs in yellow, red, blue and green - no black or white. Which of the colors is the most period correct to what came in the cars when new?
My car is Winchester Blue if that makes any difference.
