Dr2 wiper dating

Post by Cole Liggett »

I have a DR2 that I pulled out of my July of 63 Cooper. Looking at the numbers is anyone able to tell if this wiper motor was originally in a mini? My guess is February of 60 based on the DR2 560 numbers? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

A 75385 would be correct for a mini but the dating would be in months making it May 60

Thank for the info. I was thinking that the dr2 was date coded by week. Good to know it’s by month. This forum is always so helpful!

Cheers,

I believe that all Mk1 Cooper's had DR3 wipers from standard?
