1967-1969 Delco Energizer R-59 Maintenance-Free Battery
There are a couple of manufacturers (Antique Auto Battery and Restoration Battery) that are currently producing the original style Delco R-59 date coded battery. The batteries are Maintenance Free with "AGM" (absorbent glass mat) technology. The companies clam that the batteries feature the authentic look of the original assembly line battery and are available date coded for the detailed restorer.
Does anyone have any experience with these companies and how close do the batteries resemble the original factory style battery that was offered back in the day?
