Battery

[COPO CARTEL]

Guys I am in need of replacing my battery in my Camaro, who is the best company and offers the most accurate repop battery. I need a R 89 side post battery. Thanks. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

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

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!

Did you use the maintenance free or the lead acid?

[Canuck]

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.

By the way the peanut butter ones are my favorite. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/drool.gif

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

They were double iced peanut butter TastyKakes - mighty fine!! That skinny little Darren would only eat one pack - bummer, http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif

The date code charge was something like $40 or so.
