Blake,

A 67B originally had 2 6volt batteries in it.  If a DPO has converted it to
a 12 volt the best solution is to take the existing battery (if it is still
there) to the parts shop so that you purchase one with the precise
dementions.  There is not much (if any) room for error in the battery box's
on these cars.   If you do not havre the battery I seem to recall that a
Group 24 or 26 battery will fit!  Anyone out there please jump in! Other
than cost is there some reason why he is usuing a 12 volt?

Safety Fast !!!
