July 1965 "K" Alternator??

  • On my July 1965 built "K" convertible should the pulley be Black, or the zink dichromate finish?? everything I've read recently says Black until 1966 production.

    Also, what about the alternator fan?? same question:should it be Black or zink dichromate finish?? Thanks!!

  • Wow!!!! 34 views and no one wants to venture an opinion-I thought this would be simple--I found that I had a round tab alternator in my old 1970 Econoline van (don't know if its original or not)(don't know numbers on it yet)but I think its a good canidate for rebuilding/restoring and installing the correct fan and pulley for my car.

  • OK, Found my answer in the 4th edition!!

    At bottom of page: "note:Up until approximately mid 1966, alternator pulleys and fans were BLACK. In '66 they became zinc dichromate"

    So mine will be BLACK!!
