You may not have to move the alternator. Sam Frost kindly sent me a link to pictures of his 410 that has a factory installed A/C system. This has the compressor mounted above the power steering pump and looks a much better proposition in a Bristol. His car is away at the moment but I'm hoping to have a good look at it when it returns. If I go ahead with the conversion I plan to make some similar brackets but for a smaller, lighter compressor.
If anyone else is interested maybe we should get a design together that can be easily reproduced for anyone following suit.
I am wondering whether to change the hidden under dashboard quadrant ventilation control for a push / pull that is a bit more accessible.
