Maybe? I've got to forage in the parts room today for other requests, I will look for one. You have the single motor since its a '69 as I recall.

Old style. Thanks

Now you made me look. Your windshield frame has 3 air vents in it, that means it is '67 or earlier. Two different style wiper motors, depending on the year. Can you get a picture of the inside of the windshield frame, where the wiper motor mounts?

It’s a Frankenstein machine, parts from two different 69’s and then the windshield frame. I’ll get some pics. The motors on it are not original to the frame as the mounts are wrong - adapted.

These I believe were purchased from JC Whitney some time in the mid 80’s. The mounts were upside down so we used sheet metal screws to attach. Not sure what the originals even look like. I found some on Amazon that are smaller that will mount with one screw in the original machine screw mounts. They seem pretty fragile and the electrical is on the opposite side. They have auto park. The wiring grounded out inside the window frame and killed these so I’ve run some jumpers from the battery and clipped the original wire harness at the fire wall.

Ok, ugh. Those actually look like original motors, only the later style. The earlier style had a thinner shaft and mounted opposite of how those are mounted. The holes for the shaft may have been drilled out to accommodate for the later style motor. Are both of them not working?
