I have a 62 C-10 and the generator has quit charging on it, have checked the voltage regulator and it is good. I am not wondering if anyone sells a generator for this truck (straight 6) or an alternator conversion bracket?....any help is greatly appreciated.

Grab your shop manual and rebuild it. It was made to be rebuilt easily. If you don't feel good about that, you could have it done by a local shop that does starters and gen/alt's. Call Napa and see if they have a rebuild kit. grin

If your not concerned about correctness, then I'd suggest an alternator. They are cheap, plentiful and if you take trips, can be found even in the smallest town.
I know that some people sell conversion brackets, but they are easy to make. I am the last person you would want to fabricate something for you, but I converted my 59 cadillac in about an hour, including wiring. Lots more charging output, stronger battery, brighter lights, etc.

my 2 cents.
