I have an '81SC that I too use much too infrequently. I fitted a battery
isolator "dis-car-nect" or similar for a few pounds/dollars. The car is
kept
under a cover in an unheated garage.
My battery is a largish Nissan model (the PO worked in a Nissan dealer).
I've had the car about 6 years and it's still on the same battery - I'm
giving it a little charge at the moment but generally the car will sit for
a
month and then start first time (with a nice cloud of smoke!!!)
I can't think why your batteries are dying - mine seems to be quite happy
sitting disconnected for weeks at a time.
