Spent some time on the headlight assemblies last night. The first step was to test the bulbs that came with the cars. It turns out that they all worked, but...
Some were stamped with "6v" and had nice, bright lighting characteristics. Others were stamped "12v", but were dingy yellow when lit with 12 volts. So, was it common to use 6 volt bulbs for better light back in the day? The 12 volt bulbs are pretty sickly looking. Also, are the 6 volts going to fry quickly?
