Both my batteries are missing probably due to scrappers where the volvo sat before. What size and type of batteries do you guys suggest? Also cut was the battery cables. Also what brake fluid gear fluid does it use

You may have to pick the brains of L3314 owners elswhere if nothing comes in through this forum. There are several Facebook pages delaing with the Valp/Felt/L3314/C202 and I just stumbled across a new one to me. www.l3314.no

Battery cables should be an easy fix. Auto parts stores have generic black and red cables with a variety of ends to suit your needs. you can also make your own using the appropriate crimping toll and fittings. If you are not going for exact period terminal clamps but want to keep this Swedish, I hightly recommend the OJOP quick detachable clamps.

While I cann say with certainty, I suspected DOT3 on the brake fluid given the vintage of your truck.

Hope this helps.

Just use whatever Duracell or Interstate batteries that will fit in there best. The subtleties of size differences and cranking amps isn't much to be concerned about as they will all basically have plenty in this case.
