You can contact
THESE GUY"S and see what they can do for you. You'll have to take everything apart and ship it to them. I have them do all my chrome and polish work.
As far as an alternator , you can get one from Jeg's part #713-38229 (chrome) 713-68229 (polished). Both are 150 amp, around $315 ea.
I think they charged me $50 to strip the powdercoat and polish the IDI cover...

heres a suggestion...i have several parts in my engine bay jet-hot coated, similiar to a polished look but it takes alot of heat without having problems like chrome and it's not expensive to do...best bet to find somebody is find a hot rod shop or maybe ask some exhaust shops if they know somebody in the area, as mentioned before, you will have to remove the parts to be done...i have the hood prop rod, valve cover, strut tower brace, upper motor mount, throttle cable bracket, alternator and the bracket all done
