Jay I see what you’re saying now. I bought this restored and it was converted to 12 V. I don’t plan on bringing it back to 6V right now. Maybe some day in the future. For the most part I am a purist within my other hobbies so I get where you’re coming from but I just don’t have the time right now.

Jay is referring to the fact that it would have had a generator originally, not a Delco Remy alternator that wasn't produced until the B was out of production. The alternator would also indicate it has been converted to 12 volts. Restoration would be 6-volt system with a generator.

I'm sure that I have the brake locks. I need to look to see if I have a clutch peddle lock.

If it was fun to pull in LOW gear, I could have a John Deere.

Hello everyone!
As I am familiarizing myself with my 1952 B restore and reading through the manuals, I am realizing it may be missing some original parts. I know taking pics and posting them on here can be a hassle, but I am just not coming across what I need anywhere else for visual reference so that I can find correct parts to paint and install.
The parts I am referring to are the foot brake lock levers, the clutch pedal lock, and the orientation of the hydraulic control lever. Any reference pics are greatly appreciated.  |
