1959 Chrysler Royal wiper motor - bolts right onto EK wiper base and is 2 speed. Unfortunately can't find too many of them lying around. You can see the Royal wiper switch on the dash.
What confuses me is that it appears to be a pretty original FE ute but the plate says it is an FC.
Complete FE front sheet metal, grille and bumper, FE dash and speaker grille, FE horn ring. But is has FC door trims in the correct colour for the car - Dravo Green.
Exterior colour is also correct - Cape Ivory.
The chassis number also is FE if it starts with 7.
Dash top is black which would indicate a 1958 FE or FC - not a 1957 FE.
So is it an FC with an FE front and dash or an FE with FC door trims and painted dash top ?
Very interesting Ken

Thanks Ken,
It had me scratching my head also....
I will see the owner next week and see if he knows, I do know he picked it up for his wife to restore.
Maybe someone put something together for him out of a couple of wrecks.
I will find out, and ta for the wiper info, I knew it was pretty different, hence the photo
I will let ya know next week...

Ken, Nick and all,
Concerning the Chrysler Royal wiper motor, Jim Robinson at dodgeparts.com.au (I think that's right) is a good bloke (Central Victoria) who specialise in all things Mopar, with very reasonable prices. He would be a great start if anyone wanted one for the effy.
