Does Anyone Repop 1970 Starters?

[7E-Bodies]

After finding thrill after thrill of original parts on my 70 U code Challenger, I found the starter to have a 1973 marking on it Do any companies repop them or am I stuck digging for one?

Nope .... Rebuilt originals or lot's of us have switched to the mini-starter from the '90's 360's
  Those can be had from a salvage yard, rebuilt or there are re-poped new

I wonder how hard it would be to find a rebuilt original?

Not hard.... https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=1000976&cc=1078444&jsn=547
finding a date code to match your car could be a challenge

Another thing...most of the problems folks blame on the starter are something else

Yeah but the original must have died and been turned in as a core long ago.

If you find a correct dated core you can always send it out for rebuilding or even OE restoration 

It's one of those items, that only you will know has the wrong date on it....unless you are going for OE judging.

I agree, Alan. It's just that it's "that one thing", but I guess so is the paint, the trunk pan, and the quarters. I'll keep poking around. Never know. After all I came up with a 2229171 master cylinder and 3 NOS 70 owners manuals, so anything is possible.

Well I'm sure they're out there...good luck
