The battery box in my vert is aftermarket and crap. What was the original battery box configuration in a '63 Dart? It looks like, from the frame rail, it had 2 45 degree under tray brakes and did not have the one that went from the top of the tray to the top of the inner fender like later Mopars (deduceded because there are no holes in the inner fender for that bracket).

Thanks,
Jim
 
You description is indeed accurate - 2 braces on the underside and 1 or 2 bolts holding the tray to the inner fender.
 
I just bought a repo battery box from Vans auto it looks about same as original. You are right on description of box has 2 braces and later models have 1.
