Re: ORIGINAL 837 ALT ?
Looks like a restamp to me. Fonts on a lot of the characters are wrong. Area all around the stamping looks reworked as well. Hopefully you didn't pay much for it.

Re: ORIGINAL 837 ALT ?
looks ok to me, I would have to compare it with one from the same timeframe ...

Re: ORIGINAL 837 ALT ?

Re: ORIGINAL 837 ALT ?

Re: ORIGINAL 837 ALT ?
There's a lot wrong with this one pictured compared to a real 837 alt I have here in the shop dated the same day. The first problem is the spacing of the date code characters. The other problems are with the 8's 3's and 7's. The D is also different. The feet on the 1's are too short and the list goes on and on. https://www.yenko.net/attachments/use...1-dsc00892.jpg

The stamping on the alternator looks consistent with the restamps that 'wilma99' was peddling on Ebay.

Re: ORIGINAL 837 ALT ?
To add to what Chris said,the 2 zeros really look off on ALLZS alt.
They should be wider. Here's a restamp from Wilma99 with the incorrect narrower zeros too.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1968-Z-28-SS-Cam...=item417291e459 Look at the depth of the last 2 characters (top A & bottom G) on Chris's original,compared to ALLZS. |
