Bill, YES it can be converted and used, heres how:
1) In the event your old wiring utilized a 4 terminal VR that had the L load terminal, the wire that used to go to the L can now be wired instead to the BAT terminal on the new VR along with the other wire on BAT that wires up to the load (NOT battery/starter) side of ammeter.

2) The wire that used to connect to L load on an old 4 terminal VR (if it had one) can be wired instead to the Load (NOT battery/starter) side of ammeter, the same ammeter terminal that wires down to BAT on the VR.

If it used an L terminal connection on an old 4 wire VR that supplied hot battery voltage to loads like lights and ignition. If you only have now a 3 terminal VR those loads not get voltage off the load side of the ammeter, same side that wires down to BAT on the VR. Thats why if the wire that used to go to L is wired over to BAT on the VR (along with other wire there up to ammeter) it will work
If it had a 3 terminal VR before all this, the loads should already be fed off the ammeter so all you have to do is wire BAT and FLD and ARM on the VR as described above
Any questions???

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
