Took the battery out and went to the store to have it tested by their fancy machine, it passed.
Checked all of my connections again.
Checked the wires from the alternator to the voltage regulator for continuity with my volt meter... they were all good as well.
Double checked the ground wire on the voltage regulator and moved it to the side on the bare metal.
Snugged everything down again... fired it up... when I revved it up, it was showing good 14 plus volts again.
So... I guess it is good now.
When I took it for a spin I noticed it is loosing anti-freeze... and traced it back to the heater core.
Well, at least that is something I know how to fix.
Happy boltin' folks,
