Classic/Antique Car Repair: 1961 Cadillac, lasalle club, car parts dealers

Question
Need to find the part that goes over the battery to hold it in place. Thanks. 1961 caddy 62 series.

Answer
This is called the "Battery Holddown" and you can usually find one on eBay if you watch for a while.  Or, you can contact one of the old car parts dealers like Kanter Brothers.  There are also people who specialize in Cadillac parts - just do a Google search for "Cadillac Parts" and you'll come up with a long list of people to ask.

If you are not already a member, you should join the Cad-LaSalle club - they will have a vendor list that will help you out with any part you need.   Contact them at
