6 volt to 12 volt
Hi everyone,
For years I've felt pretty determined and "proud" that my '54 R-120 is all original and still 6 volts.
One of my winter projects is to get a decent radio installed. As I've been researching the ways to power a 12 volt radio with an inverter, I got to thinking that maybe I should entertain changing the truck over to 12 volts. Kind of just looking for opinions on the pros and cons of keeping it 6 volts and converting it to 12.
also, I haven't even looked yet, but is there a conversion "how to" saved on our forum? I'll go look around right now......
thanks, I appreciate your thoughts and opinions.
