1954 buick century battery

Hi all. Does anyone know what battery will fit and work in my car. I never thought this was going to be a problem? Thanks

The correct group no. is 3EE. If you are doing a stock resto for show points, you will pay dearly for one with the correct Delco markings.

Fortunately, this same size battery is also used in farm tractors, which keeps the cost reasonable. Just google "3EE battery" to find one close to you.

if you live some where with napa stores near you start there. i always had luck with them getting a battery for my 53 special.

You scored a hit. NAPA does show a 3EE battery on their website. It is more expensive than from some of the other suppliers I looked at, but this might be offset by the convenience factor if NAPA is willing to ship the battery for free to the store location of the buyer's choice.

Thanks for the information. I'm looking at a interstate 3ee that they want$125 for. This is a great car club web site.
