Best alternator mount... ever



Found this one on the Western MA Craigslist and had to post it!

First off... the most lightweight alternator bracket I've ever seen...

But what is that attached to you might be wondering?

Only the strongest point in a car; the rotten strut tower

Re: Best alternator mount... ever

Looks like his strut mount was so bad he welded in a strut tower from another (white) car.... and then it continued to rust around the new part. That car has got to be an awful rust bucket. Either that or he bondo'd and painted it.
