Re: [Amc-list] generators

[JOE FULTON <piper_pa20@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I know that at least there were two models of the
Delco generator in the early 60s.  A short frame model
(probably low amp model 25? 20?) and a long frame
model.  The 62 Classic I parted out last year had a
long frame generator.  I think I have at least one of
each.  Email me with the Delco part number and I think
I'll look through my parts pile for a spare for you.

Joe Fulton
