My car won't start. When I turn the key, I hear rapid clicking sounds. I have read elsewhere that this may be an indication that my battery is dead, but the radio/wipers/lights all work. Can they still work even if my car won't start due to the battery?

I have a 1950 ford f-1 and I upgraded it to 12 volt and it runs great. However it doesnt charge the battery because the battery keeps dieing. Right now i have everything wired as it was in the 6V way with the 1 wire from the alternator hooking in the back of the dash boards power area. Where should it be. Thanks

My perfectly maintained Avalon XLS has low mileage( 49,000 miles). Its engine has been extremely quiet, so far. But in the last couple of weeks, I noticed that when I accelerate while doing low speed (about 45 mph, at 1800 rpm), I started hearing a muffled roaring noise. It is hard to pinpoint the source or direction of the noise, whether it comes from the front or from underneath. Cursory inspection shows the tail pipe and muffler to be in perfect shape. What could be the cause of the noise ? I certainly would appreciate some suggestions. Thanks.
