Hey Thorpers, as part of the recovery from my prop strike, I decided to replace the alternator because, why not. Now every rotating item is either new or freshly overhauled.
The old alternator was behaving perfectly prior to removal. Unknown year of manufacturer, unknown hours, but I would guess around 900 hours.
Click on this link to the B&C L-40 alternator system, currently selling for $990 new.

I would be happy with $375 for mine, including the ancillary items shown on their website (bracket, etc.).
By the way, their current overhaul price is $400. So, you can use the alternator as-is for $375, or you can send it to B&C for overhaul and have a freshly overhauled alternator for $775.
Let me know if you have any interest!
