Earlier this year, I lost the alternator out of my '78 spit at a british car
festival, bought a cheap charger, charged the battery and drove home that way.
Still enough charge to start several times.

I'll bet the
old Saturn alternator swap used on TR7's and 8's will work but
you will have
to get the right pulley and swap pulleys.
But it might be cheaper to just buy
another battery and drive. I drove all
the way back from Summer Party (10+
hours) on a battery. Just don't drive
at night. Lights will kill a battery
in an hour or two.
