An alternator question...and I bought a Green Book!
The green book is awesome. I now own "Ben's 1969 Green Book". I don't know who he is but appreciate the care he took in keeping this one clean.
I have been collecting parts before I actually start on the project. I scored a beautiful pair of NOS Cibie 7" Oscars. They are pretty big and I hope they fit with enough clearance between the spot on the bumper and the grille. I have a pair of Hella vintage lamp stabilizers that I will install to keep them steady. The Oscars plus my new headlamps will brighten up the night.
I bought a beautiful chrome fire extinguisher too. I'm probably going to swap out my distributor with a 123 Unit. I had one in my '67 M-B 230S Rally car and it worked well.
I'll be adding a few more electric pieces like a clock, MapLight and maybe a Brantz Rally Timer. So the question I have for my Volvo Experts is will I need to install a larger alternator to keep all of my electrics happy. I upgraded the alternator in my M-B 230S...(that I sold).
