BTW in case you hadn't figured it out the B should have two 6 volt batteries in series (making 12volts) but it seems bodging in a single 12v battery was pretty common. 

The  car looks to be in pretty solid condition, well bought. I am mulling over starting my project BGT thread soon, by contrast my car's body is a veritable colander in comparison to yours!

Yep, I thought that’s what’s been done.

Mine had a single tray for 12 volt but was a ‘78

 

I think they changed to single battery in 75 when the rubber bumpers and other changes were made (My 76 also has the single battery hole too).
