if it has a 12 volt battery in it it probably has been converted, points and condenser don't know the difference between 6-12 volts. i always put 12 volt battery in my AD trucks and then used a ford truck step down on the gauges, replaced the heater blower motor with a 12 volt one off whatever was laying around. 12 volts seemed to start those 235's in even the cold weather really nice.
