PMSL, of the pain.
Its just that the rest of the engine looks so nice, and the alternator looks so nasty
Im going to be the only entrant in this years "modified 1.6 gl" concours class at this rate, lol
TBH what i probably should do is just rip the alternator apart, paint the bits up and stuff it back together.
Ive just ordered some chrome suspension tops, and a couple of other bits though, so i fear that "Bufty-itis" may have taken hold.
Stupid thing is its not like its helping maintain the value or anything, its worth feck all anyway cause its just a replica, all be it now a replica thats cost me almost as much as i could have bought my cousins concours winning mint original example for, LOL
