[Found!] Early Alternator Mounts?

[doc540]

My '61 has a stamped steel alternator bracket, but I really need one of the later ('63-'64) CAST IRON brackets.

Anyone have an extra?

This is one of my last projects on the Lancer, so please help a guy out.

Thanks!

Is this what you looking for? Cast iron and fresh off a dirty, oily engine lol!

Very well could be.

Any idea what year engine?

Thanks

It came off a 65. I was under the impression they were the same from about 62 or 63 up through the last slant in 87. I could be wrong about that though.

I hope that's the one I need.

Let me ask slantsixdan to chime in to confirm it.

Thanks

If you want it (oil and dirt included), pay the postage on it by whatever might be the least expensive way of shipping.

Before I pack it do you want to confirm with SSDan first to make sure it’s what you need?

I'll take a chance on it for what little it costs to ship it.
Just sent a pm, thanks

The same cast iron lower alternator bracket was used '62 through at least '76. It will directly replace the bendy '61-only stamped steel bracket. The one in the pictures will be fine on your '61.

Looking forward to installing it.

While you're thinking about it, here's a tip published 25 years ago in the Slant-6 News that's still worth keeping in mind, even though you're no longer likely to find Slant-6s in wrecking yards.

Well, that's a little good news.

I have the anti-wobble slider bracket.

You might do better in the "parts wanted" section. I'll move the thread there.
