Capri - Replacing broken alternator bracket

Several weeks ago on my usual run up the mountain, I popped the bonnet to find that the alternator bracket had snapped. I have no idea how long it had been like that but I do have a look under the bonnet fairly frequently. Thankfully the alternator was tight and had not moved.
So the first step was to find a replacement. I was fairly certain that I had a spare one in my parts bin and sure enough, after a bit of searching, found five different ones. I found the best matching one, gave it a clean up and a spray of black paint in readiness to do the job.
There were only two bolts involved and I anticipated it would take about 30 minutes. As usual, wrong, wrong, wrong! I had forgotten that the bolt holding the bracket into the block was quite long so as I loosened it, it fouled onto the pulley wheel. I also had a ratchet ring spanner on it that I could not get off!
OK, things then get a bit more complex. To get the pulley wheel off, the fan has to come off. To get the fan out, the radiator has to come out. to get the radiator out, it has to be drained. What fun! Then I found that one of the bottom radiator brackets had come adrift so some solder and Araldite saved the day.
After all that, the bracket went on very easily and all the bits went back on without any dramas. I guess that is what makes old cars so interesting and frustrating at times.
