SOLD 72 New Yorker Washer Fluid Reservoir

[fjrdoc]

My 72 New Yorker has had the original washer fluid bottle replaced with a generic aftermarket unit. Looking for an original unit for my car. Not sure of the part number. Anybody manufacturing repops?

 

[Wollfen]

No one is manufacturing repops no, and if you can find one on eBay don't be surprised to pay upwards of $300 for a second hand one. NOS is about $600, that's when I gave up trying to find one for my car there. Mind you after finishing the car, I ended up with a spare, it is a solid unit with no cracks but it does look dirty. If you are interested let me know via PM.

I gave a nice one to ABCMoparts to use for reproduction, but I have no idea when that might happen yet.

That is one part that is elusive and needs to be reproduced. ...

Here is the pics of my bottle. You can reference my GT build to see where it goes.
Wollfen's 1971 Sport Fury GT !

For sure. One of my gripes for a long time has been the relatively poor servicing of the C body by the aftermarket.

A C and Murray have been doing good with the dash pads, seat backs , side shields, and the sills if they ever hit the market. Not Formal stuff but it's a start.

I needed a washer bottle to pass the safety inspection on my '70 300. I used this setup from a mid 80's Dodge D150. Works well in the spot for the original. As finding a decent non-cracked original is almost impossible I will likely leave it for now. I am also installing a coolant overflow bottle from the same truck. BTW only $49USD

safety inspection? Youre kidding?

Actually "insurance inspection" would be more accurate. I am insuring this car as a daily driver possibly so the insurance company requested a mechanical fitness assessment. On their form I had to have a Tech fill out washer bottle is a requirement lol

This is the one I have in my 70 300. It's not a 70 unit, I think it's for a later (74-76?) C body. Not quite the same, but close enough to look like it should be there. These pop up on Ebay once in a while.

Yup...Formal washer bottle.

In the state of MA usa we need working windshield washer squirters fully functional.
The latest inspection fad here...

 

[polara71]

That's outrageous. I do not use the washers, for that matter the wipers get minimal use and NEVER on the oldies

Thanks for your help everyone. I tracked down a bottle to use on my car.
