Yeah, it looks like it's missing that inlet filter that goes into the reservoir and holds it in. I'll probably just have to a new pump along with the reservoir.

Question: Does the mounting of this reservoir interfere with the forward portion of the driver side inner fender such that a second battery install would be impeded?

Currently my 71 has no reservoir, so I'm not sure what it is actually supposed to look like. I know kinda where it is supposed to go, but up in the front I'd like to throw in a second battery someday in the future.

So the plastic reservoir, recommended by NumberDummy, and correct for my 71, would mount in the same location as your reservoir "bag" cranemec? If that is the case, that would definitely not get in the way of a second battery.

Or you can do what I did with a 1994/97 T-Bird/Cougar washer reservoir. My 68 was missing it's wiper reservoir also. I just happened to have a 97 hail damaged Cougar to swipe parts off of. It's reservoir had the motor in the bottom side of it. So I just clipped the wiring off the Cougar along with the reservoir. There was the 2nd horn in this location. So I snagged the dual horn assembly off the Cougar and mounted them in place of my Bump's right side horn.
