Where were you able to locate the chrome kit for the alternator? That’s a good idea and I hadn’t considered that as an alternative. By the way, there’s a place in Texas that you can get alternator and starter parts from. I used them to rebuild my Astro alternator. They’re reasonably priced too.Got the shock/headlight mounts welded on...and ended up getting new pulleys to utilize a (1) V-belt system. For the alternator, I used my old alternator internals with a new chrome kit. I went ahead and replaced the bearings and brushes while it was torn apart. You can still purchase the bearing and brushes from Rock Auto (surprisingly).

I found the kit on Ebay...it looks like it's a product of "rodspeedracing". Here's a link to their store. rodspeedracing | eBay StoresWhere were you able to locate the chrome kit for the alternator?

New position... Ben Dover further? Sorry, been years since I worked for other slave drivers besides myself. I still remember!Thank you for the link. I'm going add them to my list. Seeing your progress makes me envious. Got a new position at work and now I'm too tired to do anything when I get home. I guess the iron in my blood is turning to lead in my ass... Thanks for the progress reports!
