I have edited my previous post. Tom's following comment prompted me, that I mis-led you. Refer to my above post. Basically the resistance of the field windings is different between 6 and 12 volt. Conversion can be carried out by having new field windings wound.
Tom you just need to find an older Auto electrician. Go on line. In England there is a company that rebuild these older lucas units. They make up new field coils and rewind armatures.
I could spend time doing it, but so can you.
