Electrical problem. 1964 1/2 Mustang?

Question:
I have a 1964 1/2 Mustang that has a Generator rather than an alternator. The generator is in working order, but for some reason the battery keeps draining. I am not sure what kills the battery. I unhooked the radio that was directly hooked to the battery, so this is not the problem. I only drive the car once or twice a week, for about 10 miles. Any ides what this could be?

I would get an amp meter on the positive terminal and look for a amperage draw with the key off. If you have one, then just pull fuses one at a time(not that many in a 64 Mustang fuse box) until it quits showing the draw. Then figure out what is shorted on that circuit. Never learned a better way on the old beasts.
