thanks ray 337-685-4042

 

Good luck and get out you pocket book!

 

Are you looking for a correct one or one that looks close meaning it at least has an openface front. If you just want the look then you have more options and will save some good deal of money. If you are looking for a restoration correct one you should post what month and week your car was built so you can get the correct date code if possible

 

THIS FORUM IS INTENDED FOR POSITIVE FEED BACK AND INFO NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS LIKE YOURS THANKS FOR JUST RAISING THE PRICE ON THE ITEM I THINK U JUST SHOT DOWN MY POST

 

THANKS FOR THE INFO. LOOKING FOR JUST THE LOOK PUT MY CAR WAS BUILT 11-69 WOULD U MAY- KNOW ONE ONE

 

I positively wish you good luck. As you probably know they are hard to come by. I wish I had a few. Still waiting for date you desire and #. Someone on the forum may part with one for you. Most guys on this forum know their value. Be more specific as to what you need. As a rebuilder I buy a lot of old cores and occasionally come across one. Again Good luck.

 

I do not know of one available but occasionally you will find the open-face front on ebay and you can put that on another alternator.

As Rocket Vapor and Stellar pointed out these seldom come up for sale and if they do folks know what they have. Trouble is they are the same alternator that 1969 and 1970 Corvettes use and that seems to just add to the shortage as they tend to be even more particular about correct parts.

 

Good evening,

I have what you need - 1100890 (55AMP) 9K20 AY and also an extra 1100880 (37AMP) 9J5
as well.

Shoot me mail if your interested

Cheers,

Wow, how was that for service. The right part and found fast. This is a great forum with good guys.

 

His car has AC,so the 1100890 should be it.

 

No offence intended, I was just trying to make sure you knew what you were getting into (preventing unknown sticker shock).

I have been trying to locate the correct one for four years.

As others have pointed out these are very rare and we (Olds people) have to compete with the Corvette guys for the remaining few.

Again, I wish you good luck in your search.

 

All i can say is people pick up old oldsmobiles all the time we need to keep those high priced items between us and not advertize there high cost to the general puplic with comments to one another to indicate that thay are worth a arm are a leg.
Thanks for all u guys help i will have to do like roketvapor and keep looking
