I do`nt know of one but I`m sure they are out there, try Google. I go the weld my own route when it comes to something like this.

 

It's fiance, finance is what you do when you buy something but can't pay for all of it "up front."

 

 

 

I know paint is not cheap. I have only bought my red in QT cans (2) so far to do the inside of the cab, door jambs, under hood area but not the hood it's self. Thinking I will need a gal of red and 2 qt of white to do the outside of my truck yet.

The NC chapter has a dinner coming up on the 28th in Lexington at Speedy's about 7:00
Little far from me and hours with work don't work for me but some are going to car pool think, from Raleigh area.

I was going to say just make one. Not knowing how & where the GEN was and guessing the ALT will go there what all is needed to fit the ALT there.
If you can post a picture or 2 we might be able to point you to something that may work with little work.

LOL I was thinking the same thing LOL

I used one from here:
https://alternatorparts.com/alternator-brackets.html

I cannot remember which one. I think it was either A200 or A265. Instead of using the existing generator bracket, I bolted the long "L bracket" directly to the block and built it up from there. The existing tension bracket worked. The original belt just fit but is difficult to install. The alternator was a 10si Delcotron with upgraded output and a single wire conversion that I built up from spares. It's been working fine all along.

Don't matter finance or fiance ... Can't afford either one lol.

 

Well said! I know that all to well!

Great project, thanks for the updates and progress pics!

 

Do you have any more pics of the bed restoration? I'm going to be taking mine apart soon to replace the wood floor & repair some rust & it looks like you did a great job on yours.

 

Paint job and the bed look great! I like the way the front end looks with the white bumper.

Been a long 11 months. First drive today around the neighborhood and did good 👍

 

Not yet. We r installing this week. Hope to have pics posted by Saturday. We r doing the Lowe's "do it yourself" bed

 

Beautiful job! I'm doing a low budget cosmetic restore on a '59 dump truck. Swapping cab and front clip but couldn't justify expensive paint so settled for tractor enamel with hardener. Thanks for posting. Very inspiring to someone getting tired of sanding.

 

We paid $500 for paint and primer single stage summit racing. We mixed blue green and white to get this color. We are I this for around $13k.
