Replace the battery and run a wire from your negative battery terminal to the front passenger side of the engine bay for a solid ground. Your alternator is probably not getting a strong ground from the back of the car so it wont charge. Its a pretty notorious problem when mounting the battery in the trunk. I once had the same problem on a swap. No matter how I grounded it in the rear it just wasnt good enough. I ran a small guage wire to the front and good to go.
