I have 69 dart 225 and while my girlfriend was driving home from L.A. the alt Gauge dropped to below the halfway mark. After checking and testing the battery, starter and alternator at the local parts house we came to the conclusion of a bad voltage regulator. However after further searching I found a GM alternator from a late 70's truck. A 7127 model I believe. The internal on the alternator is not plugged into anything. I cannot find a vr anywhere on the car and the hot from the alternator seems to run directly to the starter relay. The car still runs normal but the gauge is still reading low and the radio won't stay on. I'm now officially lost. Please help with any ideas. I can't bare to leave my baby in the driveway!
