rustred said: (quoted from post at 10:20:29 02/17/14) no, I am not mad. I just hate 12 volt conversions on a unit. they are seldom professional looking. and when I buy an old tractor I want it original. just because of a 12 volt battery vs 6 volt is no excuse or argument. I even hate the sound of 12 volts on 6 volt starter.
and... there is a lot more stuff obsolete than 6 volt starting systems, when it comes to restorations.
and ... original is worth the most money.
and ... 12 volt replacement has the unit devalued to real collectors.
and... if the unit is a molested tractor with all kind of junk on it then it don"t matter. have more juice and think about it. as I said there is no reasoning putting 12 volt conversion on small cid engine that spins over fast enough with 6 volts. magnetos are obsolete also but there is a pile of them on tractors also. carburetor"s are also obsolete.
Are you telling me there is a fuel injection kit out there? I want it.
I'm not rich, I don't collect tractors, I use them. Farmalls are still good chore tractors for the hobby farmer and small land owner.
12 volt rules! 6 volt drools! Lol

It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
