Has anyone tried here?  I would have called but they're in VA and closed now.

I have a feeling that they drop ship from Antique battery. I bet Brant knows.

They seem to have a pretty good selection.  Maybe they have other suppliers?  My car is retired from concours, and I've heard too many people complain about the repro battery, so I use a topper.

It was my understanding that Antique Battery was the only MFG for the last few years and sold to other dealers.

I called Restoration Battery about a month ago and the recording said that they were retiring.
