Should I put a price on this or scrap it. Any ID help would be appreciated. No markings or tags to be found. Came with a purchase of C1/C2 and C3 parts.

C2's and C3's didn't have generators, and that doesn't look anything like my 60 generator, and I've never seen one with the adjustment slot on the generator mount. Don't think it's Corvette.

Not a Corvette piece, Joseph. I hate to recommend any vintage part be scrapped but in this case I might make an exception.

Might be for a Cadillac. They had a slot like that. I think they had a 3/4 inch belt. LeSalle 1940's 6 volt. Probably $25.00 - $35.00 as a core if it isn't too bad looking. Might be worth something if restored.

Thanks for all the replies. While picking parts there are stories of an old Cadillac and I have 2-3 parts marked 1941 Buick.
