Take a look at www.usplastic.com and check out their polyethylene tanks.
TAMCO is one brand I have used. A 36" x 20" x 20" tank will hold four
large-ish batteries (L-16 or similar) with room to spare. The lids need
some foam tape for air sealing, but otherwise they are acid resistant
and remarkably strong. They look tidy and are easy to drill into for
conduit fittings, hinges, latches, etc. I've used them a few times for
small 4 x 12V battery banks, but you could link two of them for 8 x 6V.
