Welcome to TDP!
Probably the most common issue with the charging/starting on this vintage of truck is CABLES and CONNECTIONS. If you do a search on this forum you will find tons of information about this subject.
The biggest problems are poor cable condition, meaning interior corrosion that cant be seen and the factory end connectors and ground connections.
Do a search and pick the remedy that best suits you. It seems that everyone has a slightly different way to fix this problem and most of the ones posted are effective.
