I would guess the alt and water pump are hidden under the "cab" and driven off the driveline. Can't see the rest very well, but probably the wires and hoses are hidden in the frame rails and the radiator is in the "cab" behind those louvers...
Seems a little silly to me, but different strokes are what makes the world go round I guess...

re: (grand rod run!) pigeon forge TN.
your right DuckRyder, the rad is behind those louvers, and the alt. is ran off the drive shaft. it had a elt. water pump behind the seat with the rad. and the hoses were plumbed in on the back of the block and under the drivers side header. the cab would actually lay flat on the pavement but it wasn't all the way down in these pics. notice the headlight in the firewall. the seat was a wooden bench.

im sad to say Brad (427blackpearl) and i didn't get our schedules together to meet. when i talk to him on the phone he was having to head out to bristol to pick up a couple of cars and the 3 or so miles between us was bumper to bumper traffic, gridlock almost and i couldn't get to him before he had to pull out. so we didn't get to take pics of our 68's together
