1936 Generator?

[D Kernel]

Hello -
I have been told that the generator on my 1935 coupe is not correct and is for a '36....
Any thoughts?

The generators for 1935 and 36 carried the same part number 40–10000B
The only difference is the cut out changed in April 1936 would have a Ford script on top with a letter B, the earlier ones had the letter A with Ford script.
This is from the 1935/36 early V-8 Ford book.
