If you want originality, there are some fake black rubber six volt battery cases which will fit a 12v battery inside, but since the bike was 6v originally perfectly correct restoration is obviously not your aim.

I have a fake box and now have a matched pair of 6v batteries to be used in parallel. Unless I go to 12v and set them up in series. Glass mat type. Neat fit in the box.
