What's wrong with the alternator? Might be a cheap fix.
Had a 78 Volvo, alternator went out, had to have it towed. The shop I had it towed to wanted $250 for a new alternator. I had them charge the battery & drove home and called my Volvo guru. He said Volvo alternators were almost bulletproof; said it was probably just the brushes.
Picked up some brushes for about $2.50 and put them in myself & it worked fine.
If the diodes went, that's another story.
