even with only half the contact on the post.
But you'll have to ensure it stays clean and dry and doesn't corrode more.
You can still get a replacement cable (I did for voltage drop reasons) from Saab for around $100 or so. Or maybe even fabricate your own from #2 welding cable and some ends. Literally 32 years ago in 1973 I fabricated the best pair of jumper cables I've ever had (and still have them) from #2 welding cable from a welding supply house and some NAPA jumper cable ends. You can get battery terminal ends and round eyelet ends for the welding cable (the round eyelet probably from the cable/welding supply house) from NAPA and fabricate your own. I'd clamp AND solder the terminals. You'll need a goodly heat source to flow the solder, probably a propane torch.
