I have searched for a few days now and can not find the picture of the mustang with the painted alternator. I was wondering how hard this is and if I need to disassemble the alternator to do it. If so is there anything I have to be careful of?

Two ways: mask all the internals or disassemble it. I masked it off. The winded coil doesn't matter but the fins and center vents do.

Make sure you disconnect your battery first! lol

Hopefully you people are smart enough to take the Alternator OFF the car.

Seriously who would be stupid enough to try and paint it on the car??? I was going to try and take it apart to paint it. Anything I need to watch out for when taking it apart?

I powder coated one a while ago. He never sent me a picture with it on. I don't remeber anything difficult about taking it apart. In my opinion I think it looks like crap when paint gets on the wires if you leave it together and paint

Have you seen some of the neanderthal threads being started lately??

OK I take that back, I'm sure some moron would try it on the car. My friedn stated that if I took it apart that the brushes would have to be realigned.
