I'm looking for a while motor and an ignition switch for my 69 rr, New or used does any1 have any ideas of where I might find these
 
Do you mean "wiper motor? Try your local salvage yard for starters. I would call first and see if they have older vechicles first. Because alot of the yards these days got rid of the oldies and are only stocking newer vechicles. The Ignition switch I would get online from Classic industries or similar. Hope this helps!
 
Year One maybe also, as much I hate to say it...
 
Budniks: Anything I should be aware of with respect to Year One? I've had my cars for years and am just now get around to restoring them (divorce, child custody battle, loss of house, subsequent economic catastrophe etc). I ordered an emblem from them, $26 bucks but came to $43 by the time shipping and all was added to it. I was wondering if there was anything to watch out for with Year One other than their high prices.
 
They are p-r-i-c-e-y & take way too long to ship usually or out of stock or if they offer a discount/sale, everything I usually want is always discount exempt ...LOL.., I've never had any real problems, the quality has always been really good to, it just takes a long time to get the parts I order it seems... I wouldn't recommend them, if I didn't trust them... but be patient
 
Agree with Budnicks. Year One's shipping and handling floored me the last time I considered buying anything from them.
 
I may have a used ignition switch for you. I replaced mine a while back so the door and ign used the same key. I think I still have the old one. I will look for it and let you know.

thanks Prop & RC... Yeah E-Scam {e-bay} is a good source also, I just kind of forget about it, I just don't use it much anymore, got shafted "one too many times".... Allot of scammer out there, people selling rusty crap for the price of it's weight in gold... It's still a good tool, for finding parts, but just be careful & ask allot of questions, do your due diligence, get detailed photos of the actual parts, don't just go by the advert. photos....
 

71 date coded, E body part number, clocked for a C body, B body bulkhead connector. Just my observations on that wiper motor from the photo in the listing. It can be made to work but the way it's currently set up, won't work for a particular application until the bugs are ironed out, i.e. reclock for the proper park position for what application you're using it for, right now it will only park correctly for a C body but won't work for a C body because of the bulkhead connector, change the harness if you're wanting it for an E body, blah blah blah...I'm too **** I know LOL
 
I have the ignition key/tumbler set. I don't have the electrical portion of the switch.

If you want it, you can have it for the cost of shipping.
