If you got the the coverage, use it. I would. Your car is too nice to just let it go. Thank god the PAINT didn't get burnt!!! You were very lucky....I hope that doesn't happen to anyone else. I don't know your history, but from what I can tell, you've been around cars a LONG time, and know your stuff. I worked as an auto tech, etc. for over 25 years, and I've never seen a battery do what yours did. I've seen 'em blow up on a charger, etc, but not just like that in the car. Just goes to show that s**t happens, and if you act quickly, you can save your eyesight/face! Did your headlamps blow out from the overcharging condition? Usually that'll clue you in that somethings wrong, as you probably know. Good luck with the '65.
