How do you wire the alternator on a 1968 Ford Mustang?

Hello. If your car has a charge indicator light, you should have a white wire with a black stripe hooked to the stator post, a white wire to the fld post, a black wire with a yellow stripe hooked to the bat post, and a black wire with a red stripe hooked to the ground post. The white wire on the fld post goes to the F terminal on the voltage regulator, the white wire with black stripe on the stator terminal goes over to the S post on the voltage regulator, the black wire with the yellow stripe on the bat post goes to the hot side of the starter solenoid, and the black wire on the grd post goes over to one of the attaching screws on the voltage regulator and also to the passenger side of the engine block, where it is attached with the same bolt that holds the negative battery cable to the block. If your car has the charge indicator gauge instead of the light, the stator post is not used.
