A buddy over at the Yenko.net site, refinished the case for my alternator. I never liked the paint that the original rebuilder put on the case to make it look like metal and once I stripped it off, I wasn't too happy about the dark crusty appearance of the original pot metal either. This guy was kind enough to offer to run the case through his metal refinishing tumbler process and it came out awesome!

Here's the results after I got the case back today and reassembled everything. Looks just like it was hot off the assembly line. Even the original date/part number stampings look crisp and clean like they were just done 14,177 days ago. :-)










and back in place:
