Re: The Duchess Project: 1940 Super 8 Convertible Sedan

I have the correct rebuilt generator (with cast pulley) in the Duchess now, but I did buy a 6v alternator modified with a larger width pulley for the larger Packard fan belt. We decided to keep it original. I could take it along, but 5 years ago, the first time I drove to Pebble, I took a ton of tools and spare parts and the only things I had to do was "wash" the clutch of rear engine seal oil and replace the voltage regulator. EVERYTHING on the car is in much better shape than it was then. I'll see what Don advises.
