Nothing like an alternator! With my luck - every time I drove a Moggi (for myself or friends) dyno burnt out on the first run from vendor. Once with loads of smoke. Local scrappy provided a suitable alternator (Metro?) and a fitting kit from ESM. Job wqas done in few minutes. As you say - never a thing since.

It's a bit bent, since you ask! Very handy though...

Do you think previous owners suffered from road rage and used them as weapons?

My starting handle has got two 90 degree bends in it. Maybe they're made that way.

You must have one of the later ones - 180 degrees rotation, 1:1 turning ratio, 100% piston lift and low charge option.

Well that would make turning the engine over and releasing wheel nuts interesting
