Default Generator or Alternator, that is the question.
Can it be positively identified?

Is it a Generator or an Alternator on my 1939 Ford] Convertible with a replaced flat head engine. The engine is a 1947 or '48, 100HP, 59A-B, replacement with 12Volt, Positive Ground. There are no markings on it or evidence of tags removed. Previous owner has gone on to the Big Junkyard in the Sky with the sign that says "Take what you need!"

Thanks y'all!
