So I had to track down a window motor for the tailgate...
I called Hidden Valley auto parts, They had one in stock. I asked for a picture and it was the later 72-3 style and insisted I was wrong.
I called Wildcat, They had one they had to go pull and test. $150 and still havent heard back.
I called DVAP...they didnt have one but told me to call...Mopar City...(I forget I have them 20 minutes away)
So I called Mopar City and sent him a picture...he said that doesn't look like what I have but c'mon down since you are local and we will set you up with something...cool!
Last night doing some research I determined that Chrysler had to have used this style motor somewhere else...and they did...I found an almost direct match on Ebay. 61 Chrysler door window motor. Bingo.
Today at Mopar City, I get there and the motor he had waiting was definitely not correct and he said c'mon back and I walked into a world of Hemi parts and other high dollar mopar parts...but I wasn't shocked, I want C body crap. We headed to the power window motors and I dig this out of a box. Says 62 Chrysler. But I see that the actual drive motor is the same, and in perfect shape... I unbolted the gearset from the actual wagon motor itself, one at a time changed the bolts and BOOM...I have one like new 1969 Polara tailgate motor. For $85 dollars I couldn't say no with how nice it is. I got a mini tour of the yard. (No Pics) saw some of the C body cars...and talked for sometime before he had to get back to work and I had to go deliver a 383 to a friend. I remembered I forgot to grab my OEM rubberband for my original window motor on his work bench...I'll be headed back Saturday with hopefully some exciting news.
Top picture is the 62 Chrysler set up, bottom picture is the modified 62 Motor with 69 Wagon gearset bolted to it.
