Not sure of it's origin...
My friend has his sisters '72 Charger at his shop and the alternator deal is killing him. Got two of the wrong alternators from the parts house he works for...not sure if the car ever had the correct alternator on it since his sister bought the car.
I've steered him this way to help him out... warm weather is here and she can't drive the car (georgeous '72 Charger with a mild 440/TF in brandywine paint. Very nice...)

I can't imagine where this alt. came from...yea I know Chrysler. I haven't owned a '60's Mopar since '68!
I seem to be missing something...Not sure of it's origin...
Chrysler round back alternator...
Used in the sixties with the single field alternator and solid state voltage regulator

Title says "I'd this alternator" . The OP posted "not sure of it's origin..." But no photo or other info.
Then Krooser posted a photo of a round back alternator.
Then:
Which makes no sense. Single field used a mechanical regulator dual field ( isolated field for 67dart273) used an electronic VR.
Finally (Post 7) the OP said:
So are we to assume the 72 charger has a 1 field wire round back alt, and a mechanical single field VR. AND that
Krooser is Shorty Medlock's friend who's sister owns the 72 charger?
is it april 1 again?
Yeh ^^ and that is what I asked. The old alternator you pictured WILL NOT WORK with a car using a 70/ later regulator. What we need to see is what came off the car, and what you tried to install that you say does not work. I don't have a crystal ball, Rusty is in charge of that ****
Post the numbers stamped into the housing (if they're still visible and haven't been sand blasted off) and we can tell you more info on original year and output.Not sure of it's origin...
