    Couple questions:
    Anyone know what colour the wiper motors were as the car left the factory?
    Mine is a '71-350 with depressed park wiper motor.

    Looking at a local power steering pump to clean up & replace the one I have in the sprimg. No access to the car so I can't double check for myself.
    Pump I'm looking at has a large pressed steel reservoir that tapers & extends up to the filler cap.
    Pump that I "think" is on the car has a round reservoir with a pronounced & smaller neck that extends to the filler cap.
    Parts book shows the tapered pump for '72 & later, the round is shown on '70-72 cars with the I-6 engine only.

    Thanks for the help.

    I replied on George's list, but for the benefit of others....
    Wiper motor--all natural
    According to the 71 service manual, 350 in fullsize and ALL A-body have the round pump with the neck. No triangular alunimum bracket as in previous years. Two steel brackets bolt to the head and the pump

    Thank you Nick.
    Actually read your answer George's list first.
