Don't know about MI but there's an Ace Auto Electric
on US1 in Melbourne. I think you probably won't save
much rebuilding one you own, vs buying a reman.

But, too, alternator problems are not necessarily to
do with the alternator on these cars. Seems to be a
lot of exciter circuit issues. It's worth a closer look
before swapping the alternator out.

Import Generator on Ellis is where its at. He's done plenty of local F_body cars. He did a high output one for my TA years ago and it still is great. Wierd place, but my alternator was like $40 and had it the following day.

You mean weird guy.

You'll leave knowing how to do it your self, and with a headache. But he does AMAZING work
