My son has a '74 MGB with dual 6 volt batteries which appear to
be approaching the end of their useful lives.  He has been considering 
switching to a single 12v battery.

Is this "easy" and what are the "gottchas" ?  Which side carries the battery 
and are their replacement cables available to make the switch or is this a home
mechanics job?  What is the recommended battery size and type (South Texas 
driving)

thanks,

Bill
