R" terminal sounds like a 10DN with external regulator. Is that what you have?

I've never seen a 6V alternator, but you never know.

'll not speak for you, but as for myself, I know that there are many items in the world that exists that I have never seen. 6 volt alternators do.

Post some pictures of the alternator and wiring.

Any markings/numbers on alternator?

I own 3 6 volt alternators.

Two on my 1929 Fords and one on the shelf in the garage for an 8N.

Are they Delcos? As I said I've never seen one but I guess they exist.
