Sudden Loss of All Electrical Power

Not related to the issue, I've got a yellow car like that only mine is a shitbox, a cool shitbox but still a shitbox. I can see yours is a really nice car.

It was a **** box back in 1988 when I bought it for $550.

I paid more than $550 and it's worth more than what I paid in really good parts. It's a solid car, runs real well but is not a good parade car. Did you do a lot of work to your car?

On my Car there was not one straight panel when i bought it. Rust was not too bad, mostly the lower rear quarters. Trunk floor was actually OK.
The hood was found in a Junk yard and had damage too, but had tabs welded to it and had the front end crease pulled out.
I rebuilt everything mechanically on the car, and Re-did the interior carpet, headliner, A/C & Heater box, instrument cluster, pretty much everything except recover the seats that were in OK condition, but I re-dyed them from green to the more gold look. (car was originally green with green/Tan interior.)
I have the original drivetrain, but the engine/rear axle are in storage. Original transmission is in the car, but has been really modified.
Current engine is a 500" stroked 400 block, and the rear is the Strange S60 (Dana 60 Replacement.)

This car has the original 727 with a 2800 stall converter and a Randy's Rack and Pinion 4:10 rear end. The only thing I've done to the car is redo the dash and gauges. Someone had covered the original dash with black burlap which looked like crap and then they painted the standard gauge cluster bezel/housing yellow like the car, which looked like crap as well. I installed a push button start in automotive school as well as a set of decent aftermarket gauges with breakers. The frame rails are nice and straight. I can see some rust starting to develop and will deal with that when necessary. It has a 360 with a duel line Holley and a nice set of custom headers.
