    12 volt generator for a farmall A

    I am looking for a 12 volt generator that looks similar to an original 6 volt generator. Is there such a thing. Now there is an ugly automobile alternator sticking out the side of this tractor. I like the 12 volt system but I do not like the way this looks. Any suggestions?
