Yes, it is 6 volt positive ground.
Yes, the 1952 Ford F1 pickups were originally equipped with a positive ground electrical system. This means the positive terminal of the battery was connected to the chassis, and the negative terminal was connected to the electrical components. However, many owners have since converted these trucks to negative ground systems for compatibility with modern accessories and components.
6 volt positive ground is the answer!!!!!!!!
No. The last positive ground car that Ford made was 1948.
Electrical sytem positive ground
Post the year, make and model of the vehicle (in new question) and one of us can tell you if it is negative or positive ground.
originally 6v poitive ground
Prior to 1956 Ford used a Positive ground system. So, if your vehicle iss still original and unaltered, it should go to ground/ the frame.
Thanks, the dude that's been restoring my car died and I didn't think he hooked it up wrong... I got a 50's Ford 8N tractor and it's positive ground as well
The 1960 Thunderbird was 12 volt negative ground. The 1955 Thunderbird was 6 volt positive ground and 1956 and up was 12 volt negative ground.
To hook up a 6-volt positive ground ignition coil on a 1949 Ford tractor, first ensure the tractor's battery is disconnected. Connect the positive terminal of the coil to the ignition switch, and the negative terminal to the distributor. Make sure the battery's positive terminal is connected to the chassis ground, as the system operates on positive ground. Finally, reconnect the battery and check for proper spark when cranking the engine.
No, only Ford used positive ground electrical systems,but your 53 is probably 6 volt.
positive wire is the live wire it goes to the + term ground goes to - term
