Several ways to do it, depends on how much money you want to spend and what the amperage output requirements are. The 6 volt generator will output 12 volts with the correct regulator, but at reduced amps. You can also rework with later parts to create a 12 volt generator or you can purchase conversion kits. Another way to go is an alternator built inside of a generator housing. E. J. Whitney is one source, but there are others (NOT cheap!).

"The E. J. Whitney Company has been converting vintage automotive generators to alternators for a few years with great success.

We primarily do flathead Ford generators from the model A thru 1953 (seven models). The early models had a cutout relay on top of the generator which we convert and install on the new unit so it hooks up just as Ford intended. We also do Delco Remy. The focus of our design is to reuse as much of the original generator as is practical to preserve that original look.

All of the units we produce are 40 amps which are more than cars of this age ever had to begin with. All internal parts are new first quality alternator parts from a major manufacturer. Our alternators are capable of putting out over one hundred amps on the test bench but exceeding forty amps for an extended time would overheat the unit."
