Thanks for sharing the journey rescuing the old girl, It's being quite the adventure like lots of old tractors are. It wouldn't matter painting that alternator black, the purists will smell them 5 counties over, and start commenting before they see them L.O.L . What they took out of that new gear shift boot so they don't last is probably the natural rubber content. We have the same problem up here in Canadian winters with newer rubber work boots and tire tubes splitting. Those made in China cheap tubes won't last much more than 6 months before we get fed up pumping fluid and patching them in winter chore tractors. we buy the expensive brand Michelin or firestone tubes and never have a problem now unless something gets in the tire. Our local tire shop won't even sell those cheap plasticy feeling tubes for tractors now, they've had so much hassle with them after repeat service calls. Take care.
