The 59-64 parts book says that 59-60 cars used American Bosch wiper motors, and 61-64 got Auto-Lite. I realize that 63 and 64 were really Prestolites that were functionally identical to the Auto-lite. I have a friend who wants to put a correct American Bosch wiper motor in his 59 Lark. I have a few surplus wiper motors, but some have no markings at all. (The Prestolites are all marked.) Is there any way to identify an American Bosch motor?

I don't know how else you could tell unless there are traces of the Chrome Foil with Blue Print, Bosch Label on them.
I am trying hard to remember if these Bosch Motors were the ones with the Tin Cover over the Parking Switch, I believe they were.StudeRich
