Depends how original you want it to be, and whether the output of the dynamo 
is sufficient for your usage.  These cars ran perfectly well for many years, 
and many still do, on dynamos, alternators were required for the higher 
loads of more modern cars.  A similar question is often asked of MGBs, and 
that is "should I uprate my alternator?", and the answer is just the same. 
I've never had a problem with the factory-rated alts on either of mine.
