"Are the original starter and points and condensor still useable?"
YES, the points are more of a current switch and their and the condensors voltage withstand rsting is wayyyyyyyyyy higher then 6 or 12 volts anwyay.....The starter will work as is although it can be tougher on starter drives and I wouldnt let it crank a longggggggg time
Also the voltage regulator?
NO, If you use a generator, it and the new Voltage Regulator need to be 12 volt
If the 12v alternator has a built in reg. can the original be eliminated
YES If you go with an internally regulated Alternator, the old Voltage Regulator IS NOT USED
NOTE Most alternators require Negative ground so in cases where you have to convert from Pos to Neg ground (not sure on the 300, if 6 volters were Pos or Neg) the ammeter leads need swapped so it dont read bass ackwards and the coil leads need swapped so + gets switched ignition voltage and - leads to distributor. HOWEVER if shes already at Neg ground none of that needs done
