Default Re: 12 volt?

I will never have another 6v car again. My sedan was 6v for the first 15 years my grandpa owned it. His coupe he owned for over 50 years and it was also 6v. When I put AC in the car I was forced to change to 12v (really wasn't forced- it was something I wanted to do regardless) and I have never looked back. All of our cars are now 12v. I never worry about topping off a battery with water, I never worry about cranking amps, I never worry about having a weak ground somewhere. My car is a very nice driver and was restored correctly. But in the 9 years I've had it 12v, I have never had a short, never had dull lights, and only 1 battery change during that time period. My other car came 12v. The other 3 are also 12v and none have ever had an issue. If you don't care about points or originality, there's no reason not to switch.
