I've been looking for the proper Delco Remy 4H 6v battery for the CCKW.

No luck so far :( but I did run across a Delco Remy ad from the 50s on YouTube.

Although it was typically corny like most 50s ads, the interesting part was they said the name "Delco Remy".

I had always pronounced it "remy" (rymes with Hemi) but it is "REE MEE".

Who knew?

Here's a 50's commercial... quite long (even if you strip out the idiotic lead in, water mark, and trailer)
