I haven't seen much talk about battery boxes around here...

My car is almost a daily driver. I don't like the idea of having it out in the rain... I'm particularly concerned with the battery being exposed enough to get wet and drip corrosive drops into my hellhole. I want the 914 to be able to handle the weather. (The rustoration is coming. After repair and POR15 and decent paint it will be more resistant, but then I'll probably been even more protective.)

So, I could move the battery into one of the trunks as I've seen done. But why not just put it in a weatherproof box (vented appropriately)???
