early cars called for a group 24 battery, not sure if that changed. I can easily fit a group 34 in my 68 battery box with no worries of the top terminals hitting.
a battery is one of the things I never cheap out on. I run Ac Delco batteries in just about everything, and I put an antique auto battery i my vette. Modern battery made to look original. Its pricey but they claim they will hold a charge up to a year.
FWIW- I used to love optima batteries, I have one approaching 10 years old that is still good. 2 months back bought a brand new yellow top, dead cell right out of the store.
