yeah, she was in Monument, luckily my uncle went up and got her running. We got the alternator out (I hate hate HATE working on foriegn cars...), and are ready to put the new one back in. turns out there was a connection bolt that hooked up to a wiring harness that had broken, I guess. It was spinning freely, but not making connection properly... yep, broke.

I love it when I know what I'm talking about!
