Don't know who this company is, not affiliated with it, never used their kit and have no results good or bad to report.

Found it interesting

Viewed this on the internet, essentially a kit to re-identify your existing battery to look similar to an Autolite battery.

FYI the kit is for trying to make a battery look more like a 68-70 assemblyine battery with stickers . 65-67 assemblyline batteries looked different then 68-70 . The white tag with red lettering in the picture included in the kit  that is meant to go on a battery post was NEVER used on a vintage 65-70 battery. It was something that the Newcastle battery company (first repro battery company) put on their repro batteries for liability reasons when they started selling them in the 80's. Other repro battery companies and memorabilia companies not knowing any better started selling them as if they were vintage items.
