Depends on the year of car and if matching alternator.

Generally all internal regulator alternators from 1970 to 1979 had 1 wire go from the alternator to a splice with the power wire in the wiring loom on the intake. The other went into the car to the alternator light and ignition key area.

If that's a 10DN it will need a regulator.. But thats a good thing, its a better system then the one wire..
