C3 Battery

I need to replace the battery on my 1973 C3 L82. Any recommendations for a particular battery and supplier would be most welcome. Thank you

Many of use use Tayna Batteries - very competitive prices, plenty of manufacturer choices and prompt delivery.

I use a Duracell advance in mine from Shield batteries tight fit but plenty of cranking power

There’s good info in this previous thread on the topic:

Can anyone recommend where I can purchase a new battery for C3. I’ve got the battery with screw in type on side not terminals ? Also it looks too small to me. Plus it’s dead !

Basically if you you still have the original side-post terminals then a type 75-60 or 75-70 battery is suitable.
Or if your car has been converted to top terminals then a 096 type or similar size will fit.
Top terminals allow the use of quick release connectors so you can isolate the battery when the car is not in use.
