Manual windshield wipers wanted

[jshel1]

I am still pending inspection, so no guarantee that it will work...

I used the following from JC Whitney:

with a shorter replacement blade picked up at autozone.

I routered a piece of aluminum to slide into the windshield top rail with a mounting hole for the above assembly. Easy-on for day of inspection, easy-off for rest of the year.

When it said MANUAL wiper, that's what I thought was meant. I have a MANUAL one from a 30s era car that I have never used....you operate the crank with your hand to clear the window with the small blade. Now the accessory type that's being discussed are handled by a variety of Rod shops, used on a lot of T and Deuce roadsters and clamps to the upper windshield frame it has it's own switch and is usually plugged into the cigarette( what's that) lighter. We got our last one from Speedway Motors in Nebraska, but I don't think there are a large number of manufacturers so they are probably all the same ones.

Well I found speedway motors had some $20 model t wipers. Hey its a FORD! I fabed up some rough brackets out of aluminium. They have thub nuts on one side to clamp on the top of the windshield. Ugly but it should work.
