Been pretty well covered. I was a teenager in the 50s and was very interested in cars. 1955 Chevy v8 had 12 volts, 1955 Fords had 12 volts. Highway patrolmen with 55 Fords commented about the big special 6 volt batterys they ran.
1954 Cadillacs may have had 12 volts, not sure, rarely ran across anyone I knew with a Cadillac. I did have a 55 Buick with a 12 volt system, 54 Buicks may have had 12 volts. In the back of my mind I'm thinking the 53 Buicks and Cadillacs had 12 volts but not sure.
Chrysler went to 12 volts in 1956.
It was interesting to hear the old straight 8 Buicks start on 6 volts.
