If you can cut, drill and weld steel; you could make your own bracket.

I went to a car show yesterday and earned a trophy that ended up costing me
$150. $20 to enter the show and $130 for the tow home. The front bearing in
the generator seized and my attempts to make a temp belt for the water pump
met with the usual failure. I've been considering switching to an
alternator
and have seen alternator brackets at SS and Reisentz for $150 + or -. Does
anyone know of a low cost solution? Many years ago, this same car had an
electrical fire caused by the generator and I would really like to get rid
of the
cussed thing if it can be done for a reasonable price. I am pressed a bit
for
time. There is a Ford show 4/22 and the SOS Road Atlanta thing at the end of
the month and I am screwed if I can't get it resolved ASAP. If I have to
bite
the $150 bracket bullet, I will but my experience has been that delivery
times
vary depending on whether the vendors are out enjoying the Spring car shows
instead of spending all day in their warehouses. I need a quick-permanent
fix.
