Help identifying this alternator
 
My '74 Carrrera came to me (the 5th or 6th owner) with the pictured alternator. I replaced it with a bigger one so I can install Vintage A/C. Is this worth anything? It was professionally tested and puts out 60 amps. I find no numbers on the case and would like to sell it on eBay. What else does this fit? Is the small crack in the case at about 4 o'clock hurt it's value.? Any help in ID'ing this would be much appreciated. thanx stevehttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1518891932.jpg

Here are a couple of better pix with arrows at the crack(s). On closer inspection, there are two cracks. Is this worth fixing, just to sell on eBay? thanx again. shttp://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1518931837.jpg

i can send you a phone number for the shop in LA, you can call them and maybe they have the face piece for this alternator.If it is nice shape you can get nice $$ for it .

Round file if it was mine. Not worth the effort.

proporsche 02-18-2018 12:43 PM

Hi John you are thinking to weld it and file it??

Ivan,

A little American humor- we call our trash cans the “round file”. John is saying that it isn’t worth the effort to repair and sell.

proporsche 02-18-2018 01:36 PM

Hi Rutager..i use to sell these for big bucks...and they still go for $400 if they are original alternators,
or am I missing something?
trash cans i used to use a a gool-can when i played hockey in Santa Monica beach parking lot;-)

Ivan

John Ha ......is not an answer;-)i can respond to,or?

steve meltzer 02-19-2018 05:56 AM

now we're getting to the heart of the matter...it has no numbers, nor markings on it. highly unlikely to be original nor of much value, I wouldn't think. comments? thanx. s
