Re: Battery
Doug, a lot of the guys on the CRG site are not fans of batteries from Restoration Battery, but I have had good luck. If you keep a Battery Tender on them all the time, they will last a reasonable time. I have several that have been in service for 4+ years. Tex Timberlake

Re: Battery
I had good luck with mine, it lasted over 5+ years - they even melted the date code into the top of it for me back in '01!

Re: Battery
I have purchased two batterys from Antigue. Both were the maint free type and have lasted with great results. One is in a car that only got started twice a year and it performed flawlessly.
