Lines: 20 My 1979 Datsun 310GX is going to be in the market for a new battery soon. I am interested in any opinions or advice as to a good brand of battery to buy. I see that the J.C. Penney lifetime-warranted batteries are no longer made. As a matter of fact, I have seen quite a bit of problems with the "sealed type" batteries. They seem to do fine for awhile, and then all of a sudden, they will stop dead, with no warning. I would app- reciate any opinions or advice as to what brands are best, and also, I would like to hear about any interesting experiences that any of the netters have had with the various brands.
