I will be buying a new 6 volt battery for for my '34 coupe this coming week. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I am curious where the best place is to find one - local parts store, tractor supply, etc.??

I have had good results with 6-V batteries from tractor supply.

The brand really doesn't matter....what you are looking for is the most cold cranking amps that you can get. The 6 volt battery that you purchase should have at least 600 to 650 cold cranking amps.

If you are planning on having your 1934 Chevy judged in the VCCA, then buy a Delco.

Guys,

Thanks for the replies. I checked at both O'Reilly's and Tractor Supply. Tractor Supply has an Exide battery with 625 cca which I am going to buy. O'Reilly's battery had the same cca but was $10.00 more.
