Hi everyone, I'm just starting a restoration on my 67 series 1.5 E type and I missing a few parts. Most notably the Wiper Motor. The DL3A is proving hard to find. Does anyone have one or parts of one spare. Perhaps USA members ?

They do appear on eBay occasionally, usually because owners changing from LHD to RHD cannot get the motor to park correctly. It is however a brilliantly simple design and I can't for the life of me understand why Jaguar persisted with the DL3!

Alternatively contact Steve Hunt who sells Lucas stuff regularly on eBay and see if he can help.

I have Tried Steve but can't do much for me unless I have one to exchange.

Offer £300 for the NOS one on eBay would be my way forward.
