PhilN=> Will my 6 volt clock, speedo and other dash instruments => (ignition for instance) require adaptation to work with 12 volt? You'll need to use a small 12-6V stepdown for your clock, and you'll have to switch your dash bulbs. You didn't mention the wipers; it's best to switch to a 12V motor and switch. The rheostat on your dash lights will work with 12V, though it may have a shorter life. Others have said your fuel guage will work OK; I changed mine to 12V. Your speedo does not use electricity. The ignition switch need not be changed. You'll need a 12V flasher.
