Looking for a nice early 65 blower motor ...3 wire....none of the repros look much like the oem....
Offline
Take your old blower motor(There now thats a correct useage of motor) to your local Poop Boy's, O'Boy O'Reiley's, Zona de Auto, or whatever. They will have or can get a replacement motor that will work fine. May not be listed for a 65 Mustang, butt it'll be the same kind of motor.

Thanks tubo....I'm after an original so that the wires, etc will have correct ends and most replacements are either open design or have incorrect appearance such as studs sticking out.
Offline
This one from National Parts Depot appears to have the correct ends and more or less looks original as far as I can tell by memory without comparing them side by side. It is $60.

Thanks Jeff...I called them and the photo isn't of actual part...theirs is the Craig drake repro also.

Bait and switch, how annoying. You can try monitoring eBay. I see a few on there but their condition seems suspect.
You can also try car-part.com which is a search engine for auto dismantlers. I just did a search and there are plenty listed on there. It will probably mean a lot of phone calls and then shipping, but the prices seem to be $20 to $40 less than what the guys on eBay are looking to get.

Thanks Jeff....will check it out...nice car! Mine is an early 65 fastback.

Many years ago, there were no aftermarket blower motors that would pass for originals. Luckily, Ford still had them available. In 1995, I paid over $200 for an OEM two wire blower motor (for my '65) from the Ford Dealer. I never got around to installing it until 2010. So I guess you would call it NOS.

I got mine through CJ Pony Parts. They have both 3 wire and 2 wire listed.

Do you still have your original. Maybe you can find a local shop to rewind or repair it.

One of the first things I changed on my early build 2+2(Oct 17, 64) was the 2 speed blower motor. I opted for " better than original". Even though it had all the cross over parts, I've never thought a C code has much collectability. That's why Miss May is down to; unibody, front fenders, rear end carrier and a few interior panels, as remaining original parts. Every other signficant part has been changed out.
That's not to say I don't understand your quest for originality, in fact there was an August 64 build 2+2 A code in Tampa last weekend. All original as a new penny. The owner was justifiably proud of his Stang.
So cudos to ya, and plz tell me when yours was built.
