Not Ranked
Since the FIA Cobras were entered in the GT catagory they had to have the same road equipment as their street brothers did, not to mention that the car would have been shipped from AC with them already installed. Wether they washers had to be operational or not is another question in itself. In studying original in period photos some cars had them, some didn’t, others had one but not the other. As LMH stated the washer bag was mounted to the inner fender panel in front of the master cylinders with the Ford washer pump just below it. The washer bag and mounting hanger were Ford production parts also.. when the FIA roadsters were updated for the 1965 racing season the valve cover breather system included (2) separate catch cans, one was mounted to the passengers foot box and the other was mounted where the windshield washer bag had once been mounted.
