Reproduction Battery source

  • Does anyone know of a good source for reproduction car batteries?

    My '66's repro battery has had it so I'm looking for a replacement. The battery came from Virginia Classic Mustang, a recent check on their site shows they aren't selling them.

  • Yes, they are making them again and actually updated them without the red lettering, but no one else seems to be getting them and are hard to find. I suggest being put on the waiting list as they will have them back in stock soon from what I heard.

    Are they still based on the Optima internals?

    This is what they say about these newer batteries on their website...

    "These are not generic batteries inside a case, they are full true AGM batteries.

    These batteries are maintenance free, utilizing the latest AGM (Absorbent Glass Mat) technology so they never require adding acid or water filling. The electrolyte is trapped in the separators so the battery can't leak, even if the case is broken. They come fully charged and ready for installation. "
