[AT] 8-volt batteries in 6-volt tractors

[DAVIESW739 at aol.com]

Larry you must be awfully young, 12 volts came out in the early to mid  
fifties.  Most autos didn't have anything but lights and most of them were  small. 
Radios and heaters were an option until about 53 and even then  on some cars 
they were. Power windows what are those.  No the 12 volts came  about to start 
the higher compression engines and small overhead V-8s not to run  all kinds 
of electrical things because unless you were rich and owned a Caddy  that stuff 
just didn't exist.
