he is pretty sure its original to the car.
car was purchased by his father in
mid 60's when it was a couple years old and 
was given to him for high school.
to all extents it looks exactly like my wiper motor and all other TR3 motors.
except for the routing of the red wire

Frank,
I went
through a lot of pictures when I rebuilt mine last year and don't
recall any
with the park wire running externally.  They all went through the
housing and
out the little hole as you describe.  Can you friend be sure
that his is the
original motor to the car?

looking at a wiper
motor rebuild for my buddy.
his car is late TR3 1962ish
all
of the wiper
motors i have seen have the red wire that goes to the round
circle thing (that
controls the park placement) come out of the body of the
wiper motor on its
right side as you look at it from the front of the car.
his
red wire is very
long and looks like it has to come out of the motor on the
left side where the
hot wires connect to.. the red wire is considerably
longer than mine on
TS41366.
i cant find a hole on the right side of the assembly to route the red
wire
through.
was this a later modification?
motor was already
in pieces when
it was entrusted to me to rebuild.

also when replacing the
bushes. the new
bushes have small "V" groves cut in them.
groves to the
commutator or to the
housing?
if groves to the commutator are they parallel or perpendicular to the
groves
of the commutator?

thanks Frank

photos
available if you need to see
them.
