"Because,i noticed that theres a Ballast resister on the firewall and its wired to the POS to the coil. The NEG is going to the DISTRIBUTOR. So,is this 6 VOLT or 12 VOLT SYSTEM" ?
Husker, Not being there and based on your post I can ONLY hazard a guess, but here goes:
1) If it was a 6 volt system originally it wouldn't have had an external ballast resistor so since it has one its my "guess" its been converted from 6 to 12 volts.
2) If you check the lights that may provide another clue and if you put 12 volts to 6 volt bulbs they will glow very bright very briefly lol then burn out.
3) That later model on board solenoid chevy starter instead of a stomp switch or saddle mounted push switch makes me think 12 volts, again a guess.
4) I assume its NOT an alternator conversion right?? (If so Id guess 12 Volts Neg Ground) If it has a Generator it may be labeled and some old Delco 6 volt were black tagged while 12 volt were red tagged.
5) If its a 6 volt coil with a ballast and obviously if it has 12 volt bulbs its 12 volts. If it has a 12 volt starter and you apply only 6 volts it will turn veryyyyyy slowwwwwwwwww.

Today's Featured Article - Hydraulics - Cylinder Anatomy - by Curtis von Fange. Let’s make one more addition to our series on hydraulics. I’ve noticed a few questions in the comment section that could pertain to hydraulic cylinders so I thought we could take a short look at this real workhorse of the circuit. Cylinders are the reason for the hydraulic circuit. They take the fluid power delivered from the pump and magically change it into mechanical power. There are many types of cylinders that one might run across on a farm scenario. Each one could take a chapter in
