A friend, a older long time mechanic working on 1940's thru 1970s, told me if you are having electrical problems that don't make sense "Check each and every ground point to make sure there is no paint, corrosion or anything else interfering with great electrical contact". He was a strong believer that every crimp-on connector should be soldered to the the wire.

Based on photos, your generator and regulator seem to need attention in these areas. Also, use a point file on the regulator's contact points.

GOOD LUCK
