Duck, go to the link on the forum 2010 Friday's expo Charlie McCraney's pictures first page bottom 4th picture to the right. That shows the original tbird bracket with an alternator. Hope this helps.

I had no idea I could "re-purpose" the original bracket- I think I'll take my cup of coffee out to the garage next Saturday morning and have a looky lou. I wish I could swing for the seats and buy the gen looking alt, but it's not in the cards, at present. Thanks for the thoughts. /Duck

BOO- YA!!!

Duck, it looks like this if chromed!

Before I permanently mount things I try them out. Being cheap, I stole the alt out of my Mustang and mounted it in the '55. My real intent was to retrofit the 292 in our '59 Galaxie since that's the 'family' cruiser.

CLICK HERE for my alt-to-Y-block conversion.

At the very first Woodward Dream Cruise, I discovered my battery was slowly getting low because of the electric fan and hours of idle speeds. Not good. That's why I went with a 130 amp Ford alt.

Frank, if you ever make it home, stop over. I'm still in Royal Oak where many of my friends enjoy their classic cars and hot rods. I'm also in the phone book or you can google my phone number (248) 544-8834 <---had it since '71.

Charlie, I'm glad you're happy with the one-wire. Many hot rods wouldn't be except for the one-wire. Just know there are drawbacks. If it suits your needs, God Bless You. - Dave Dare
