I didn't think of it that way....the analogy to leaving the original guitar strings on an old Martin was flawed....there's NO benefit to doing that!

Who said the battery will not 'fire' the car?
By the way, this car does not sit in a museum. It is driven regularly. It joined 29 other original Cobras in Wyoming last year for a 1000 mile tour through Montana, Idaho and Wyoming.
