[VAC] Re: What battery in '71 Tradewind?

[Jim Dunmyer <jdunmyer@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

David,
 Gerald is right, if all you need to power is the breakaway switch, most
any old 12-volt battery will do.

It probably takes a Group 27 "RV/Deep Cycle" battery as standard
equipment.

MAKE SURE THAT BATTERY IS TIED DOWN before travelling!!! When I brought
my '68 G.T. home, the battery bounced out of its tray and was a bit
wopper-jawed. It would have been unpleasant had it gone on its side and
spilled acid, or a real disaster had the terminals shorted against the
aluminum body. This is especially important if the battery is mounted in
the rear as it was on the G.T., as the trailer bounces like hell back
there.
