Are there any donor cars for this piece that I can look for? Tech guy at the track last weekend didn't really care for my tarp strap fix

Kirban sells them or Mike McCoy or Brian Weaver should have some cheap. yup

Or you could find someone relocating the battery to the trunk and get one for nothing.

Don't know of any other cars that have them like a turbo car. dunno

Looks like a standard battery hold down to me. Is it different from a normal G-body?

Junk yard, Brian Weaver, hardware store for a piece of threaded rod and an a piece of strap, etc.

Check the dealer. They are probably still available. Sorry, don't have the part number handy! powersix

I have the same one one my regular V8 Regal Limited.

I would just go to the yards, but as I found out a while back looking for some other parts, there are very few if any left around the area--either been picked over, crushed, or are wrecked beyond any useful parts I could need....

Just thought I'd pass this along, went to one of the local yards in search of the vacuum brake conversion pieces. Donor car I picked was an '82 Grand Prix, and by some stroke of luck it also had the battery retainer bracket that I needed--also picked up a couple braces, all for $45.
