<VV> 1964 generator pulley

[HallGrenn at aol.com]

Guys,
 
Thanks for making me remember those bad old days back in high school  
keeping my mother's various EMs running and the hassles of learning the hard way  
how to remove, repair and remount those heavy generators.  I think I was  
almost as happy to see an alternator with easily accessible bolts on the '65 
as  I was to see the styling.

Just like holes for outside rear view mirrors and  radio antennas, any 
skilled person can repair a notched '64 pulley (I have  at least a 
couple) to oem -- let the user / owner decide, and we'll send  all our 
left over notched pulleys to you and you can "restore" them to  
"precious" condition <grin>

I wonder, over the years, how  many armatures have been messed up by 
getting the pulley nut cross  threaded trying to install it on the car ...

Likewise, how many  "precious" fan blades have been broken trying to get 
that nut loose  without an impact wrench.
