i'm running out of ideas for my 65 midget.
the car is having a problem keeping a charge. i had my generator professionally rebuilt, a new fuse box, a new battery, and a new voltage regulator, all within less than a year. regardless of all these steps being taken, i still have to jump the car every time i want to start it, the headlights are not at full brightness and the horn does not work properly unless i'm giving the car gas. i started it up last night and after it was running for a good 10 minutes or so, i tested the battery with a voltmeter and i got a solid 12.2-12.5 volts. however, even if i drive the car around for a solid 20-30 minutes, as soon as i shut it off, it's dead and won't start back up even 10 seconds later.
