Unplug your voltage regulator. Then see if you still have a drain on it.
If your power lose goes away. Replace the voltage regulator.

He's right. The average regulator you buy form autoparts stores are junk, and it could easily be your problem.

I don't think I have a Voltage Regulator. My Chilton shows it would be under the master cylinder but there is nothing there.

You have a voltage regulator. I'm not sure about a 67, but I know the later ones are on the passenger inner fender next to the battery.

On a 1967 it is on the drivers side beside the radiator.
