Re: [loflyin40] windshield wiper assembly

That thing looks VW beetle to me, but I'm not a VW guy so I cant say for sure.  I had one that looked just about like that with either the VW logo or "BOSCH" written on it, I think it came from a Beetle.  The early model assembly manual calls for any Lucas windshield wiper motor found in Austin Healy, Triumph and pre-XKE Jaguar.  Of course, you know that the British drink warm beer because Lucas builds their refrigerators.  You have me curious now, I've got to go out into my shop and see if I still have that windshield wiper assembly.  I used stock Corvair windshield wiper mechanisms on my Avengers, so I know I didn't use it (might have given it to some kit car guy).

I have used Corvair wiper mechs and British mechs. I found the British units easier to modify and install. It is more like running fuel line than wiper mechs....

I scoured the shop and didn't find the German wiper assembly, I must have given it to someone who needed it. I have the "Fred Sanford" gene, so I know I...
