My 1940 had a regulator in it when I got it many years ago. I believe that my truck was completely original. I had the generator rebuilt, and the regulator tested and set up by an old guy who had an old school auto electric shop. I wish that there were still people around like that. I have driven my truck a lot over the years and the charging system still works perfectly.
