This is my first post to the list.  My wife, Kim, and I live in Midlothian,
VA (near Richmond) and purchased a 1962 BT7 a couple of years ago.  We also
have three Triumphs.  

I purchased a "Luckas"G24L (Positive Post FRONT RIGHT) AGM battery from
batterycentralmall.com for our '57 TR3, picture attached.  

I do not see Austin Healey under British, but perhaps a correct size battery
was used in another British car.  It would help if you know the Lucas
battery model for your car.

Do call the company at 804-861-0165.  The owner is very friendly.  

Please know there may be a loonnngggg wait for a battery as I am now waiting
for a Lucas G22L.

Best

What do you mean by a "Luckas" battery?On a related subject, it has been my=
 experience that the battery, regardless of whether it is a conventional we=
t cell type or an AGM type, needs a maintenance battery charger to avoid ha=
ving the battery damaged due to having the battery sitting for long periods=
 without being recharged.=C2=A0Gary Hodson
