The Wiper motor show on the Newport wiper web site appears to be the same as in this picture, with the addition of a sheet metal mount bracket. If so, its an American Bosch WWF-12C19-720 Type. I bought some of these new expecting them to fit the overhead valance on a PW/WC. They do not fit. With serious cutting and Mods on the Valance, you could make them work. The Problem is the heigth of the gear box. Further as you can see in the above picture and also the picture on Newport Web Site, the output shaft is off center to the top of the transmission. Due to the design of the Valance on PW/WC, this requires the motors to be mounted oposite directions of each other. In so doing, the output shafts are not on the same plane. Its a shame as these are powerful wipers and would work great. I use them on my Bombardier in Ice/Snow.
I dont see in the Newport Website where it says PW. It says Dodge, BUt a lot of other body style dodges were made during those years.
