change all the light bulbs to 12v
To convert 24 volt trailer lights to 12 volt, you will need to install a voltage regulator or resistor in the circuit to reduce the voltage to 12 volts. Alternatively, you can also replace the 24 volt lights with 12 volt lights designed for trailers.
To convert 12 volt trailer lights to 24 volts, you would need to install a voltage step-up converter or a voltage doubler circuit in your trailer's electrical system. This will effectively double the voltage to the lights, but make sure you choose a converter that can handle the power requirements of the lights and wire it correctly to ensure proper functionality and safety. It is recommended to consult a professional electrician or mechanic for assistance with this modification.
Build a scissor lift and attach to the bed and frame via crossmember. 12 volt dc pump and 3"X10" hydraulic cylinder.

Originally it would have been a 6 volt system.
From the factory it will have a 6 volt, positive ground system. However, it is popular to replace the original system with a modern 12v system.

Use a voltage devider or a transformer.
Electrically there is no reason why not .
Assuming the truck has a 12 volt system, connect the batteries in parallel, that is positive to positive and negative to negative.
If your 1949 truck is a CHEVY or GMC and it still has the original electrical system, it would be 6 volt, negative ground. If it is a Dodge or a Ford with the oringinal electrical system it would be 6 volt, positive ground.
That is called an inverter.
