There are some good Power House generator threads on this part of the forum that cover the two designs. They can be rebuilt and are good units when functional. I'm not a fan of the 6-volt conversion alternators since many of them run at a higher rated voltage than they should.

The Sport Coupe top is fairly complicated and can be challenging to get to fit well. If the body wood is solid and the frame is straight, the job is easier but still a lot of work. Be careful with the rear belt molding pieces. They are rare as hens teeth in original condition and can be easily damaged. No one is currently reproducing them.
