The alternator is a Delco Remy 20DN. I have a 55 gallon drum full of them. Some refer to them as a perforated case alternator.

This 1962 is perfect!

The rear tires is 8.20X15 MT Radir Dragster tires and the front is ProTrac 70 P225/70D15. Yes the wheels are Radir and don't think if you go with this combination changing the rear tires will be easy because you will be disconnecting the shocks and may be pulling the drive shaft yoke to gain clearance enough to pull them, deflating the slicks also helps. Good news is they don't rub.

Awesome car, Mick. You've had a bunch of nice stuff but this might be my favorite. Gotta do something with that battery though.

Thanks for the info, I was worried how tight they would be based on radir's measurements. I ordered a custom reversed wheel, and am going to order a custom width rear end to fit them. Your car looks great.
