    Older movies you watched lately.....?

    I saw that one in the theater too. "Loose Shoes" is another funny one similar to Kentucky fried movie. Saw that in the theatre too. You'd never get away with some of the stuff in that film today.

    Question about round back single field alternator

    Ive noticed too that the part store alternators seem to have always had their cases sandblasted and they are ugly and pitted and have the stamping worn away. This one is nice and smooth and clean. I have no idea why rebuilders ruin the cases doing that. Just leave them alone. Id rather get it...

    Question about round back single field alternator

    So I installed it on my 68 Dodge this morning to test it. Seems to work fine. Tested the voltage at the battery while running and it measures 13.12-14.25 at idle and under acceleration. Turns out the alternator that was on my car also has a forward look emblem and is dated 1963 on the top of...

    Question about round back single field alternator

    Yep. Anyone here ever buy the rebuild kit and rebuild one of these themselves? I saw a kit with the brushes and bearings on ebay for only $19.99. I know youd need a press to do the bearings. The local rebuilders are now charging about $130 to do one of these. Their quality control isnt so...

    Question about round back single field alternator

    I'll probably go that route and take the alternator off the car and put this one on to see if it works tomorrow. Nothing wrong with the one on it now. Just got this as a spare.

    Question about round back single field alternator

    Hi,I just picked up a mopar round back single wire alternator. Its dated 1961 on the case and has the Forward Look logo cast into the back of the case. Its my understanding that these single wire round backs are all interchangeable from 61-69 and will work on all mopars of those years. Got it as...
