If you are stuck I have one but the postage would be more than the value of the item.

It is just an ordinary Lucas ACR 17 very easy and cheap as chips to overhaul or you could fit a Lucaus A127 as used on the Escort 3 and some Sierrs and Metro.

Hi Jon , haven't seen you for a while, hope all is well? Any decent motor factors should be able to help with the alternator , not particularly expensive

Hi Rusty

Hope you are well. Yes it's been a few years. Maybe we can get together once I'm back on the road
