GM - Buick - Cadillac - Chevrolet - Oldsmobile - Pontiac 1910 - 1974
 

For just $12 we will burn letters and numbers into the top of your battery, exactly as Delco/Remy did!!
To perform this service, we will need to know WHEN and WHERE your car was built (What Assembly Plant)

Example: if your car was built in Feb of 1957 at the St Louis, MO assembly plant… your date code would be 7AV
  • 7=1957
  • A=January (Most batteries were made one month prior to the car)
  • V = Olathe, KS (Delco battery plant that supplied batteries to the St Louis assembly plant)
