On second thought ...
there is a catch to the steering column being color-keyed .

Since it didn't originally come with Formula Steering Wheel - it would have had a color keyed custom steering wheel - and matching color keyed column.

that fits

Your PM said your car came with a Freedom Battery? We have put a lot into the cap kits I make, including days of sifting through commercials and info on these battery's, even GM Heritage center doesn't have a lot of info, I'd like to see where it said on the build sheet, I'd definitely wouldn't be a Freedom II, they started in 79 or 80. The Fredom warranty cards I found had a date code of 1976 on them, very interesting info here. I've only found 3 warranty cards in all my searching. PS, I sent you a PM.

The car has a $26 charge in the window sticker for the "Delco X Maintenance Free" battery. The original owner remembered it being a Delco Freedom battery. Do you know when the Freedom came into production, given that the Freedom II was late 1970's?

My original warranty brochure for the car lists just the standard Delco Enegergizer warranty information but doesn't mention anything about the optional maintenance free battery warranty.

UA1 was only 10 bucks , ( HD Battery R89W??) so its not that, AC cars came STD with AU1 or T60 option included.
Based on the article, its Probably a C89 , I cant even find a pic of one

If you go back to the first page of this thread you can see the window sticker - it's the 20th option on the first page of the sticker, right after Honeycomb wheels.

Here's the original order sheet. Maintenance Free Battery - Option TP1 in box 48. It's different than the UA1 HD Battery option below it.

Correct, your car could NOT be ordered with a UA1 , because it came std with the AC, so the only thing available was the C89 texture battery , the maint. free version of the UA1

So is the "Delco X Maintenance Free" C89 battery also known as the Delco Freedom battery? No one seems to have a photo of this elusive contraption.

We should call this thread the X-Files...the Delco X files, that is. :-)
