Battery for 1943 Willys MB
 

Does a WWII Willys require a 6V or 12V battery?

Thanks,

Curt

Some have been converted to 12v. Do you own this, or thinking about
buying it? I'd love to see some pics.

It would be six volts, the twenty four volts didn't come along
until 1950: http://www.jeepdr.com/diagnose/chart.html Because of the
difficulty of finding replacement parts, nearly everything's been
converted to your twelve volt system, as twaldron eluded.
