A simple test with a volt meter will give you the answer.
The battery is a 12V car battery.
12v
Usually 6v, can be 12v.
If it is in your car then no, why do you have a 6v battery in your car in the first place it should be a 12v.
No, you need at least 12v to charge 12v. Most alternators charge at 13-14 volts.
It'll say 6v or 12v written right on the battery.
It should be 12 volt.

My lawn tractor is 12V, but I bet there are 6V ones also.
Yes as long as it is the right voltage: a 6v battery needs a 6v charger; a 12v battery needs a 12v charger. <><><> If you can set the battery charger's output to give either a 6 or a 12 volt output, then you must always remember to set it to 6 volts if you want to use it to charge a 6 volt motorcycle car battery.
Adding a seound battery to a series circuit will increase the voltage, and require less current to keep the lights (if there are any on) as bright. Say you have a 6v battery, then you add another 6v battery. the voltage of the circuit would be 12v
check the battery...or you can goto www.vwvortex.com If it is completely original it would be 6v, VW changed to 12v in 1967. If you aren't sure if it has been converted look at the battery. Pop off the vent caps, and if there are 3 holes it is a 6v battery, if it has 6 holes it is 12v. If the car is already running you can also just start the engine, and use a multimeter to measure the voltage across the battery. If it reads 12-14v it is a 12v car (the higher reading is the charging system charging the battery). If it read 6-8v it is 6v. If the car doesn't run and the battery is missing, you will have to see if you can find any model numbers printed on the generator or voltage regulator and research them to see if they were used in 6v or 12v cars. http://www.thesamba.com is a good resource & forum ofr air-cooled VWs.
