This is neither a battery nor a generator problem. It is most likely a fuse or 
ground problem. Check your fuses first. Look for fuses which are broken but 
which can make intermittent contact as the pieces move around.

Your '69 should have ground wires for everything, but if some of them are 
broken that might be behind some of the problems.
