1963 Windshield wiper motor identification

[Richard G.]

What are the difference in the window wiper drive motors for C2's? Specifically the 1963 motors. I want to say there was differences in the 63 motors that identified them as 1963 only motors but didn't have any information to back it up. I haven't had any luck in the archives. Any help in identifying the 63 motors from the other year motors would be appreciated.
Thanks
Rick

I'm not near my car or my references right now but I know one thing that is unique and that is the 63 windshield washer pump cover...it is a translucent whitish colored plastic and not black like you see on many cars. I did manage to snag an original a few years back... I think that is a one-year-only item but others can confirm..

A few pictures of one I have on the shelf. The number on the bottom is 5044518.

An original, Mar64, v the after market part. Notice the raised section and translucent appearance of original. So the black was not used until later.

The raised section on the washer pump was used on all 1963 and very early 1964 Corvettes.
