The round regulator is older (54-55)
I can't tell if it has an older generator
The generator pulley has a large nut pulley - that is probably older. (1955)
I think everything else is from the same age as the serial number.
A 3770534 engine # is from April 1960

It was now or never.
I could not let them go. These were not cheap, but I bought it from one person and they were all in one place. It is not often to find them in these conditions.

Hi juventuso from AC Milan fan! 
I really dont know where you can find one. Maybe doors from bay panel will fit?
If I found them anywhere on the web, I will contact you, it is not a problem to me. But, I think the shipping costs would be huge to South America...nevermind, I will let you know.
Cheers!

Hey, We ended up fabricating a sliding door out of sheet metal just like factory. Got all the hardware from Mexico and redid the sliding door...came out perfect!
