LOL I had a feeling that may become an issue Maybe I should grab some cores from the junkyard and rebuild them but I looked and it would cost close to 60$ for an alternator in unknown condition from the junkyard! Wish I was setup for large scale rebuilding but with a profit margin of under 20$ for the many hours I put in..is just not a fair trade. Now if I could go back to the bartering system for the rebuilds that maybe an option! Soon Soon I will be able to have people exchange a day of work on the farm for a rebuild

I don't see any diodes, the diodes for the alternator are hidden. I haven't yet looked at them to see their condition. There is a mono tube amp form a projector in the background.
