    Well, it IS an IVECO, and that alternator, that only fits that truck, is on a stranded container ship in LA port. Used to be, BC Cummins, turn the pump on manual, and drive until you can't see, even then, get a "front door", and make it home. With so many electrical gee gaws on trucks today, an alternator quits, the fun stops there.
