Mounting the Batteries... Part Deux

We finished mounting the batteries!  Two days and 20 pounds of angle iron later, we have a nice setup that evenly distributes the weight.  We are so clever!  The mounts look rather simple, but they took so much effort.  We had to construct and support the trays.  We then had to "massage" (cut bits off of) the grill and headlight so that the batteries would fit.  We also moved the horn a few inches.  Now that it is shoved up against the grill, it makes a very endearing little squeak.  Anyway, now all of the heavy lifting is done.  We just have to buy some wire, buy a charger, and visit Middle Peninsula Golf Carts so they can help us wire it up.
