'64 MkII - washer bottle?
Is there a consensus on what type of washer bottle should be fitted to a MkII (leafspring) car (RHD UK market), and where it should be?

Dont know about Mk II, but MkIII road cars had a plastic rectangular trico washer bottle fitted about the footwell - rare as hens teeth now.
Have you checked the usual reference texts?

CSX2367 has a Ford blue plastic bag for washer fluid. I realize that RHD Cobras are likely to be different. Dave

Thanks - yes, that looks similar to the early Mustang item. UK ones I've seen in the books show either the glass Trico bottle with motor in the lid, or the Lucas one. Positions also seem to vary, which is why I wondered if there's any concensus on what might be correct. |

Thanks Mike, yes, I have both, but I'm wondering which would be correct for a MkII, and where it should be. I'll have a search under Trico and see if there are any pics etc. |

Doesn't Ned have a COX car? Take a look at his profile and maybe he has a photo that might show where it is on his car.

Larry,
Ned's is a coil spring car, whole different animal.  The leaf spring COX & COB cars begin with 60xx and coil spring COX & COB begin with 61xx |

I was thinking Ned's car was a leaf spring car. My mistake.
