Thank you to the member who pointed me in the right direction for battery installation. Now that I had the correct orientation, I needed a tie down. PO had a bungee cord. My son and I are having a blast just picking little projects to slowly bring her back to life. We got some good use out of it today pulling the trailer around cleaning the neighbors sidewalks. Some might frown on this, but the clutch switch was bypassed when we got it. For now I am leaving it alone. Calvin can start it in 1st gear at idle (slooowww) and follow me around, and simply shut it off when he gets where I need the dump cart. He can't quite reach the pedals

... Here are some pictures of the homemade battery strap. I cut it out of a piece of 2x2 alum. extrusion. Bolts were made from some 1/4-20 all-thread.
