Subject: Re: Resor's 6 volt thing
Dear VAC members,
Thanks for all the advice and input on how we might use our '46 Merc (6v) to
tow our trailer. We have been told that 12v is required for the brakes so
we're back looking at other tow vehicles (12v).
We hope that all of you are enjoying the holiday time of the year and the
best to you in the new year.
We enjoy our Airstream restoration project imensely and we get such
satisfaction out of conquering each little or big challenge. Imagine our
smiles as the first refinished wood pieces were installed today in our rig!
Also we had the screen door hinge polished and now it's reattached to the
screen door and does that look great!
We always look forward to reading the VAC list. Bye for now. Stuart and
Bonnie Resor.

Here is a interesting web site on RV 12 volt systems, inverters and solar
power.
