    I haven't been able to find anyone that still makes a 6/12v center tap battery any more. Does anyone know of one still on the market? Thanks, Rob

    Are they really gone now? I haven't seen one in a few years but thought someone must still be making them.

    Hi

    antiqueautobattery.com still offers them, I just looked. I used one in my 1955 Imperial, when it died I just went to two 6 volt Optimas.

    Standard Batteries (on 4th Ave S) in Seattle used to handle them. Dunno if they're even in business anymore. Van, Van the Battery Man p***ed away a few years ago.
