Update: it was indeed the voltage regulator. Got a new one for $20 from benzbin.com. Put in a 26R series battery from Autozone ($44, plus won a contest for a remote control monster truck while I was there) and the new voltage regulator and car is running great again. Brushes on the original voltage regulator were very, very badly worn down after 90k miles.
