    Does anybody know?
    or have information on a voltage control relay for the lights and horn.
    for a 1938 Pontiac,6-volt system.
    Any information will be helpful.

    The horn will be fine on 6 volts. Swap the lights to 12.
    You just need to worry about the gauges.

    Are you doing a 12V conversion? If yes, the main items that need voltage drop are the guages and heater motor and wiper motor (if electric). Starter and horn will be OK. Change all light bulbs to 12V. Ron Francis has an excellent voltage drop unit that will handle all items . Your orignal radio will not work with voltage drop.

    I'm not converting at this time. I'd like to leave it 6-volt
