Saw this battery, nice case, any clue where I can get one?
I love the nice clean shiny look!

That's more than likely just a metal case with terminals through the top. You may be able to find one as a prefabricated unit, but I think you'd be better off buying a nice metal box, and adding some terminals yourself. It would probably cost a lot less too.

Agree,
yes, I have glands and terminals, so I need a metal box of like this,
I looked at amazon and could not a box as big as this.

I could always fab but trying to avoid that,
 
Google "surplus army ammo cans". That will lead you down a path with many choices between various military grade containers. They're cheap and water proof if you get one that isn't damaged. Steel or aluminum.

I have a bunch of 50 bmg and other sized ammo cans, I buy a bunch from ammo from CMP store at Port Clinton, maybe I can find a bigger mortar case or something?

Oh I think the possibilities are endless and if you don't like that drab green military look, for just a little bit more you could get some flower power decals to adorn it with?
