Depends on what your definition of reasonable is....
Jerry, I believe that you paid that for it...but it's sad they were sold for that much .

These aren't the easiest things to find if needed especially since Lestek from what I understand is out of business. I personally am not a purist and neither was my customer so he opted for a PA Performance 3G alternator upgrade as it was less expensive. But for the purist or concours show car then you've got to have what came on the car you've got to pay the price for the correct part. Just be thankful it's not an original carb for a Boss 429 or a fender for a '69 Cyclone Spoiler II!!! |

I talked to Jerry earlier today about it. He is going to check the part number and other info for me when he gets in tonight. he is not 100 percent sure what he has yet. We are working on figuring it out. I hope he has the correct part since he paid big money. I will never own a Boss 429 due to the GGG thugabillies ripping people off on parts. That reminds me.....I have a set of NOS 86 steel wheels and center caps for sale. I want 3500.00 for the entire set. (just joking but you get my drift right??)

A Boss 429 would be a cake walk to finding parts for compared to my Dan Gurney Special....last I saw a fender for sale it was $2500...but with only 353 total cars built with the long nose you either play with the big dogs or stay on the porch. Fortunately I don't need a fender but with rare cars you gotta pay to play unfortunately. Try to find a pair of NOS 6.5 Liter fender emblems for a '68 X code XR7 cougar....unobtainium....
I just picked up a '69 428 Cobra Jet Mach 1 project....talk about some "spensive" parts needed..... The sad thing is I remember the days when a friend of mine bought a Boss 9 for $7500...I think he still has it... even 10 years ago he paid $1200 or more for the correct carb for it....but it's a Boss 9 and not everyone has one of those sitting around Modern Muscle is getting the same way.....$50K plus for a '93 Cobra R?!? |

These parts do come up for sale from time to time, and can still be had for a reasonable (not $400) price. That is crazy-high.

Mike,
can you post the part number for us? the one Jerry has does not have a ford part number. just a lestek model number and a s#. go figure...

Jim,
Here is a pic of one from The Mustang 5.0 Technical Reference book....my alternator is buried in storage. I haven't added this to the tech section on the site yet because I wanted to get a good picture of mine. If yours is like this, and NOS, shoot me a pic and I'll use it instead.

ahhh......there you go. That makes things a little easier to understand. I will check my Lesteks in the warehouse today to see if they are similar.
