Basically the battery issue wasn't an issue until the motor spun the bearing. The car was taken to a local Chevrolet dealer where a friend of ours works. They verified the spun bearing. The car was making all kinds of racket when he finally got it started.

I had to read this a couple times to understand. Sad moment for me.
