Group 2L Ford V8 battery

Post by Original Smith » Tue Feb 03, 2026 6:36 pm

I'm helping a friend with an original 36 Ford Sedan. He needs a new original type battery. I used to work at Ford Obsolete in Long Beach in my younger days, and as I recall the battery he needs is listed above. If those V8 boys are as picky as me, why can't he find the correct battery for his car?

Most authentic is modern battery with AGM tech.

This site has them, look real good, work great and price is high to match looks and quality :D
