Several years ago I was driving down my long, bumpy driveway in the "64" bug, heard a thump, thump, felt a draft..... the battery rusted right through and fell out, Na, I dont like the battery under the seat, fact is the steel member above the battery looks like sombodys been practicing welding on it, Gota watch you dont get too many "hefty heffers" in the back seat.
