  Dad had a J C Penny battery in his '70 Mercedes, which he STILL has.
When they dropped the automotive stuff he managed to get them to 
transfer the guarantee.  Some agreement was worked out between 
Penny's and Firestone stores.  He still had the guarantee and all but 
while on a charger in the shop, the battery blew up.  Last episode is 
bring in a current registration and they'll write him a check for about 
$120.  Shame it blew up.  :-P  I put a Schucks lifetime in the '66 
Mustang.  One of these days I'll have to get another replacement 
on that one.  :-)
