Interesting to note IS the electrical system. 12Volts, 6volts and 4.5volts all on one Ford vehicle.

The generator is a 12 volt unit, unusual on a Ford V8 vehicle. It supplies current to two 6volt batteries(6x2=12) for the No11 and No.19 radios. The rest of the lighting is usual Ford 6 volts and the V8 coil operates off 4.5volts. All wires are in shielded cables and there are radio suppression straps everywhere.

(I too think that this should now be moved to a proper thread.)

Regards Rick.
