Dale, the business closed a while back. I believe the older batteries were made like yours. The new reproductions have the new internals. There is or was a business in Youngstown Ohio that makes the reproduction batteries. I bought one a few years back. It was around 300. They stamped the date code in the case. The internals are new and not water acid filled like the older one you have.

How were the ones like I have for reliability etc. compared to OE ones? Wondering if it's worthwhile keeping for my '65 GTO. Dale
