Ak.
First congratulations on your first acomplishment!
What are you trying to accomplish? I just combined my rear lights to a modern single lamp system (led). I still run a 6 volt system and have 12v directional, stop and marker lights. I acomished this by installing a new turn signal switch and a step up transformer to stay with the original 6v system the way she was born. Don't get me wrong , there was extra steps involved to make this happen. If your interested, I'll get you a step by step process for you. Good luck and enjoy your new 63 year old ride!

Welcome AK52, this is the welcome centre and you should ask this question in the electrical forum. You will get results, guaranteed. I do believe that turn signals were dealer installed, if installed at all. Otherwise, your turn signal consisted of your left arm.

AK52, welcome to the STovebolt. I have a 52 panel. Leo gives good advice. Not everyone stops in here at the Welcome centre every time they sign in. The electrical guru's will be in the electrical forum. Lots/tons of knowledge and great folks here. Look around, tech tips, gallery, and links.

....AK is on my bucket list!

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
