With a new battery and upgraded cables, my car ( Seven, not Big Seven) turns over like it is on 12 volts.
A six volt system is very affected by any losses due to old components or cheap replacement bits, but doing 6 volts right is just as good as 12, you will probably spend less money and the car will still be original.
The Big Seven has a better dynamo than the Seven, so many of the articles on here about electrical systems not being up to scratch don't apply.
Keep asking questions, there will be plenty of advice from the Forum.
That does look a nice car, I rather like the Big Seven, there is that bit more room and the engineering isn't as quirky.
Cheers
