Picked this NOS wiper motor up at the local swap meet.
Anyone know what it would be for?
It has screw on terminals and self parking.
The normal exit for the drive rack is blanked by the alloy cover. (normal to a Mini owner)
The main gear housing looks to be the same casting as the Mini one I have.

The Triumph TR4 motor looks the same as the 60's Mini which is also the DR3, or DR3A for the TR4A.
The difference with the one I have is in the number 75597 - different park mechanism, different housing over the gear and screw on terminals, but still a DR3A style.

I believe the park wire coming through the main housing means that it is reverse park, so no good on a Mini.
The different housing over the gear has got me baffled. I did find a similar one on Ebay but the seller did not know what it was from - maybe Morris Minor but I doubt it.
