Hello everybody
I have such a problem right now.
I am working on the restoration of a Swiss UC T-16.
The fan broke on the first test. I was very lucky, the radiator has no damage but the generator bracket has broken off on one side.
The big retaining bolt is still there but I'm afraid that the structure is damaged.
We built an adapter plate. The plate holds on the original bolt, two screws on the inlet manifold and one screw on the front of the engine. We replaced the original screws with longer ones.
The generator also destroyed it. We have now installed a small generator.
I know this is not original but we don't have many other options.
The engine is from Ford Köln. It is a German flathead. It is difficult to find spare parts for it.

greetings from Switzerland
