Just hold my voltage regulator is bad, I don't know where to find it on the car. Is the voltage regulator and alternator all-in-one or are they separate? I need to find out so I can get this car up and running for my son. Please please please I need some help thank you

Thank you. Does that mean the alternator has the voltage regulator inside of it? O'rileys auto center said the regulator was $135.00 but the alternator was $80. Does that make sense or should I shop around. Also, could I do it myself? It's on the left side of the engine.

shop around first pic shows alternator with voltage regulator inside. we have no instructions for removal on these so it may be pretty easy . also shop around for parts and watch for brand names and or warranty most give a 1 yr warranty. oh and never believe a parts guy on how to fix your car they never have made a living doing it. we have.
