Battery tested at 544 Amps and 12.4V.
Cables cleaned. Seems to be ok for now but I have to give it some time with several starts.

FWIW
"The Remy Brothers" were not French. They were born and raised in Indiana USA to a patriarchal Remy clan who had already been in USA for generations. The brothers were well-educated & wildly successful entrepreneurs who racked up several patents and millions in today's money. They also were in league with Charles Kettering (who formed Delco) and Kettering eventually bought out the Remys.
