I hunted far and wide for that date code correct alternator you have there! It's two weeks before the car's build date. The one that was on the car when I bought it, was from 1975 - and it is now happily spinning under the hood of Gramma's car! I had the case tumbled to get it returned to the original rough cast finish, as I am not a fan of painting alternators to look like their original finish as the surface always ends up looking painted. (I have never been able to find a correct looking paint to duplicate the rough cast color)

That master cylinder was donated by a yenko.net site member. It came off a 1972 Firebird. I had it rebuilt by Whitepost. Check to see if there are three tiny stamped numbers on the front flange where the front brake line fitting goes. Here's an example from the SD, which is CS3190 = 190th day of 1973. The CS matched the paper tag on the master cylinder bail.
