Hey guys

Started to remove my damaged battery box and discovered these connector, not connected to anything.

Anyone have any idea what they go to? The lead into the bat box. Could have something to do with the batteries (doesn't seem likely) they could have been put in there by the previous owner. Who knows! This car has seen some hard times.

Thanks for your help.

Hey, Kev -

First guess is maybe a battery trickle charger/tender. Any idea where they go from there?

Yup. Original fuel pump wires, Black ground, white, as power. Looks like they were stuffed in the battery box to get 'em out of the way. Odd "fix" to just run another wire rather than find out what the problem was.
