OK.. I know it is a truck forum and have used the site for not only my truck, but also my 235 powered 57 chevy 210.. I acquired a 49 Pontiac some time ago and just now started work on it. I bought a 6 volt battery and installed it. Everything is original, but I noticed that the generator is 12 volt. At least that is what the metal tag states. I got the car running, but was leery about the generator, so I unhooked it. It appears that the generator was hooked up a long time ago, but I didn't think that it was a good idea. Any thoughts on this? Can you run a 12 volt generator on an otherwise 6 volt car?
