The car had a tractor battery in it that actually has lasted about 9 years.
Looking around for a replacement that will fit with some good CCA.
Looked at the Optima and it looks great. But they don't sell one that fits the car. It's actually quite a bit smaller, especially width. And a bit pricey too.
The local Farm store has a 6 Volt with 900+ CCA. It actually seems like a near perfect fit for the battery tray. Dimensions are 12 1/2" x 6 7/8" x 9 1/2".
I measured the length and width of the tray and it looks like it fits. I'm a bit concerned about the height. Measuring it the best I could it looks like there will be about 2 1/2" clearance from the bottom of the hood to the terminals.
Can anyone tell me the original stock battery dimensions? And/or if this will fit?
