Default Model A Ford Improvised Top Alternator Bracket

I replaced my 3 Brush Gen with an alternator and made the parts for mounting the Alternator to the original place the generator was mounted, I cannot show the two pieces of drilled flat stock as I already have the Alternator mounted, Basically two pieces of Flat Stock 1 inch wide, 2 and 1/2 inches long with a half inch hole at one end and a 3/8 th's at the other.

When I got around to the top adjustable bracket, my tools for bending are limited so, using mapgas torch and a vise and a big hammer I created the top adjustable mount and used an extra long head bolt as the stationary end. It ain't pretty but it is solid and the fan belt is got a 1 inch slack to it and the alternator is adjustable! The picture shows the finished product.
