General ageing and years of electrolyte/acid vapour seepage through the battery casing past the terminal posts probably. Its surprising the engine even still cranked. I have seen this not long ago on a 1991 I think it was Fairlady that was hard starting when it was hot, massive voltage drop occuring.

Maybe over charging?

Beat me to it.
Lots of night driving in town (brakes/indicators/headlights a lot) will cause a constant charging cycle way above that of simple long distance driving. In turn causes acid vapor. Add in the monster sound systems with std alternators & batterys. Possible alternator issues?

Clean the terminals, cables etc using some baking soda. Sprinkle baking soda powder over everything and the pour some hot water onto the powder. Will foam. Repeat till foaming stops. Wipe and coat everything with grease or Vaseline.
