Welcome to FTE, the best Ford Truck Forum on the World Wide Web!

I, too, have a family '54. I bought my truck from my grandpa in 1977. He bought it new.

I got my Harness for 6 volt from Mid-fifty Truck Parts. Here is their web address: Home - Mid Fifty F-100 Parts

Lastly, we have to see more pics of your truck!

Welcome to FTE! We love pictures and completely family owned trucks are special to us.
To add to Abe's suggestion of mid fifty. Here are search results from their site.
Search Results - Mid Fifty F-100 Parts

I would get their catalog as well as Macs, LMC, Dennis Carpenter. Maybe others as well. They are free.

This is worth every penny of the $20 plus.

Here is how to post pic's on FTE

https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...ure-guide.html

Here is one way by "Axracer"

Do you have digital pix of your truck from digital camera or phone on your computer? If so it is easy to add them to a post (assuming the file is not too large). Find the pic on your computer and leave it open while you come here in another window. Compose a post, click where you want the pic to appear in the post. Click on the picture icon at the top of the posting box (looks like a postcard with mountains and sun) A dialog box will open asking if you want to drag a pic onto the box or browse your computer to find it. If you have the pic open, go there, right click anywhere on the pic and chose copy from the menu. Come back to your post and right click on the box. Select paste from the menu. Your picture should appear (it may take a few seconds to load) in the box. Now left click on the insert button.
If the stars all aligned your picture should now be in your post window. Select post to have it appear on the forum or repeat to add more pix. Some cameras make huge files these days that are larger than the forum limits. You may need to resize or resample the picture and save the smaller file version with whatever picture editing software came with your picture taking device before you can post it.

Oh! and welcome to FTE and the old truck madness.
