[T3] Battery Type- 063?

[Dave Hall]

I just go to the guys who deal with stuff for old VWs, or buy it from a VW
show.  The 45Ah is good for both Type 3s, carb or FI, so that's what I would
buy for mine.  I think it may be an 063 - that rings a bell, and I think it
has the holes for the + plastic cover and the rail to hold them down to the
floor.  Mostly we're replacing one so you can always measure the old one for
height.

Okay, but what physical size (family) of battery do you look for when you
buy a battery? In the US, we buy Group 42 batteries for 12 V VWs, but we're
told this is just a US designation. What do you look for?
