You are traveling down an abandoned air strip in your 30 model A 2 door at the speed of light and you turn on the headlights, what happens?

6 Volt positive ground? 12 Volt, negative ground? Generator or alternator conversion?
Real bulbs or LED? |

Re: ???
Big difference between the Model T and the Model A there. The Model T was designed before the introduction of the Einsteinian physics. Therefore the Model T follows Newtons laws, whereas the Model A has to follow Einsteins laws. So, the Model T can accelerate faster than the speed of light...

The light would gather up in the buckets until they were full then spill over and burn your knees.
