Fleetlines were 75 spec, so they were fitted with alternators.

Re: Fleetlines...alternators or gennies?
That's what I thought, yet the newbie is gennie.
...strange, considering it's mileage. I'll check with the PO, but I can't imagine the reason for a change...especially considering the problem with what's in there now.
Seeing as how we're on the subject, which windscreen wipers should be on a Fleetline, Fig?
Thanks, N.

Thanks, N.

I don't have any pics of correct Fleetline wiper arms, but they are unique to Fleetlines, and have a couple of bends in them. Original colour a silver/grey. The German splits had straight wiper arms.

Mmmkay - that makes the Daily ones incorrect.
The newbie ones may well be correct then though.
