If it is a restoration,I wouldn't do it. I'll let you in on a little electrical secret that most people don't know. The problem with them starts when people replace the old battery cables with new ones. The 6 volt have to be at least 2.0 guage. When you try to run 6 volts through those new,small 12 volt cables YOU LOOSE 2/3s of your AMPERAGE. I think that would have been a positive ground as well and that's vital as too. If I'm wrong about that,somebody correct me. But,use those big 2.0 cables and leave it original,that's what restoring is.
