Ground on 6V

Greetings all,
I have a 1950 F1 in which I just installed a new 6V electric fuel pump. Trouble is, I can't seem to find a ground on the chassis. Any thoughts?

Welcome to the forum. The frame should be considered ground. Remember, the stock configuration is positive ground.

I would just find a hole in the frame and use that if you can. Be sure to have metal to metal. Grounds on 6 volt systems are critical, remove any paint that might be insulating the ground.
