Default It quit on me!

I was on my way to a local cruise last night when the engine died at a stoplight. The symptoms were 1: the tach went up to 5000, 2: the speedometer was dancing. I got it off the road and tried to restart. I got the chatter of the solenoid like a low battery. The car has hardly been run in the last six months due to my job and upgrades I'm doing to the car. It has an MSD ignition and the battery is six years old. I bought the car used and have been correcting the original owners errors. I think the battery is crap. Any opinions or suggestions would be welcomed. No Patrick I won't jack up the mirrors and drive an ERA under them! If the general opinion is the battery what brand would be the best. Tom
