Hi again,

Update from Barbara ... it's on Channel 18 at 1900hrs. tonight (Saturday).

My apologies to those who have already seen it.

I converted my Grey Fergie to12 volt, but kept the 6 volt starter.

A common conversion, our 1931 Morris minor was converted to 12V but kept its starter too

Hi Peter,

I fitted a 12 volt battery to my early 1930s Austin 7, and changed all the 6 volt bulbs to 12 volt.

Neither the dynamo (strange contraption on the Austin 7) nor the fuel gauge worked, anyway. and the starter motor seemed very happy.

Yeah Chris yours looks very good. Mine is a candidate for them though. Had it a couple of years and still looks just like this.
