Firebird out of storage

[G-397076]

I have just pulled my wife’s Firebird out of long term storage ready for a (I hope!!!) light restoration. I obviously took the battery off when we parked it up, but it is long gone now. Does anyone know what battery it should be please as my usual parts supplier is struggling (it’s a ‘91 350 V8). Also, any recommendations for suppliers?? Thanks in advance.

It takes a group size 75 battery. Not knowing what parts stores are in your area makes it difficult to recommend anybody but I looked it but at the Interstate Battery website.

Thanks for that. I’m in West Wales so there’s not much around my way. Think most purchases will be online.

OK, since that's the UK I can see how you might not find it at the local auto parts store. Any GM, Chrysler or Dodge dealers close by?

Sorry, I never thought to mention that I’m in the UK. No American car dealers as such. However, I do have a Vauxhall dealer, which is GM, and a Fiat, where the Chrysler lads go. Might be worth a shout. I hadn’t thought of those.

The battery is 9 1/16 long, 7 1/16 wide, 7 11/16 high. Positive side terminal is on the left.

Thanks for that. Should be able to sort something from that.
