Are either reproduced? Mine is an obviously incorrect one that the PO wire-tied to the fender brace

Is the pump supposed to be attached to the bottom like that, otherwise where does it go?

This is what a 69 bottle should look like. It goes behind the battery in the fender. It is not reproduced and is 1969 only.

What about '70-'7e Fuselage cars' reservoirs? Will they fit the '69s, too?

Just curious,

1970 - 1973 Washer bottles are reproduced yet and they are just as hard to find. The 1967 - 1968 C Body washer reservoirs are reproduced and are relatively inexpensive and should attach using the same screws on the inside edge of the fender. Your current pump should interchange with a 1967 - 1968 washer bottle. I am pretty sure that I have a spare 1967 - 1968 reproduction washer reservoir.

So it is correct the way the pump is attached to the bottom of the tank? At first I thought mine was Jerry rigged and it was supposed to be on the firewall next to the wiper motor

I can take my existing pump and attach it to the repro 67-68 bottle?

Yes on both. Photo attached of my ‘68 Fury’s washer reservoir.

No, the pump is attached underneath the reservoir. That is the starter relay next to the reservoir.

Cool thx

I wonder if the pump I have would work on that bottle, I'm not sure what my car has in it now. Anyone know, judging by the pic?
 
i have been told that imperials up to & inc 1973 used the 69 style washer reservoir

heres a pic of a 73 imperial............
