Thinking about doing a 12v swap in my 55' ford. Does anyone have a write up about it anywhere? I can't seem to find info about it. Everyone just says "it's easy, you gotta do it!" And that's about it. Or gets way too technical with no just straight answers. I swapped my old 66' scruby years ago and a couple others but it's been so long I can't remember.
