I have one of those "smart" battery chargers that is rated for 6v. Since the Packard is positive ground, I hooked the positive cable from the charger to the ground post and the negative cable from the charger to the positive post. Nothing happens. I reversed the cables, and nothing happens. Am I missing something?

In searching Amazon, I found this:
https://www.amazon.com/Schumacher-DSR118-Handheld-Battery-Charger/dp/B0756MHZDL/ref=sr_1_25?crid=3654ICTPDV0OX&keywords=6v%2Bbattery%2Bbooster&qid=1658975683&s=automotive&sprefix=6v%2Bbattery%2Bbooster%2Cautomotive%2C96&sr=1-25&th=1 It appears to be able to both charge and jump start 6v batteries.

What was the process for building the ambulance, and where did Henney come in?

Hello, everybody. I just purchased a 1954 Packard Clipper Henney Jr. ambulance. it's several firsts for me - My first '50s car, my first Packard, my first 6-volt car, my first ambulance.
I'm sure I'll have a myriad questions as I go along, but the ones that come to mind right now are: 1) What to do about the dismal lighting (brake and turn signals). 2) What is the round chrome switch on the left hand side of the steering column?
