Do you have the original top frame to copy for your battery?
My guess is it should be a std ford one as seen in Aussie LP2/2a Carriers, without the bolt on lid. Keith(or some one else might like to chime in with the answer. If that proves to be the case, they are quite lightly(panel steel) constructed, with steel across the four corners,and a central loop for the hold down studs.
Who is up to date with batteries?
Apparently the std. car battery is now (last 5 years?) a "calcium" battery rather than a "lead acid" battery.
I have heard the new batteries dont always work well with generator charging systems.
Anyone like to back up or refute this?
