I have my ‘62 with a B18 but I just bought a 1960 544 “A” model with B16B that has been parked in a barn since 1977. Very original, very mouse-eaten headliner (and a few other things), but very original with 89000 miles. Some things are in amazingly good shape because it was out of sun and weather on a concrete floor, other things still aged dramatically. Heater hoses just crumbled in my hands. Distributor and points look new, like just switched off a few days ago - Weird.
But my main question now is, being 6V the electrical system is different from what I’m familiar with.
I put in a new battery and 75% of lights and all the accessories came right to life after 44 years!
I see the main fuse box there above heater on the firewall, but that only holds 6 fuses.
Owners manual says it has 10 fuses, and online shows a smaller 4x fuse box, but I can’t figure out where it is located in my car!
