Chris,
 
I should have mentioned that there is no batter in the car.

Look closely at the battery - the terminals on the battery should indicate
which terminal is + and which is - 
Then it's just looking to see which battery cable connects to earth/ground.
If the negative terminal on the battery connects to earth - its negative
earth. 
If the positive terminal on the battery connects to earth - its positive
earth. 

Best

Chris

Folks,

Is there any way to tell if a car is positive or negative ground?
The previous owner used a red positive battery cable for both the positive
and ground cables.

Thanks,
 Ron
