Note the battery is up on the "hump" --- because of that -- and just for general service reasons -- I made the "rack" hinge on the bottom -- and then just is blind fastened to tabs on the roll bar. Easy to undo and drop it down and slide out or service the battery.
In this car it is all hidden behind a carpeted panel.... and there is also a battery cutoff switch - hidden - and I ran a 15 amp fuse across the switch to keep battery power to the radio etc - but of course that won't let it be started.
I grounded the battery to the roll bar... since it is all welded into the body etc. Nice and short and sweet. Ran the + to a connection point up forward and then jumped off that across to the starter. Gives me a nice clean point to get + from. I use a Marine Stainless steel "post" that also has a dozen smaller terminals for taps.
