    The Newport kit in my 57 Ford works Flawlessly..... better than struggling with vacuum garbage.
    They are awesome and awesome to deal with.

  3. As a sidebar, I installed their motor in my 51 F1 but had jeep wipers which was common. They didn't have enough spring tension to hold them on the windshield at 65 mph. I bought the Newport versions and that solved the problem. :)

    @krylon32, I was just looking at Newport's website and don't see any wipers for a Deuce except for the 3 window. Did you adapt the 3 window kit to fit your other 32 body styles? I have a tudor sedan and would like to do something as the previous owner installed a wiper motor that is too large to fit behind the header panel.

    I have them in my 56. Bitch to install, made easier when I figured out a better way. Used a few times. No rain in SoCal to speak of.

    AD GM truck, rear wiper motor from a S10 type Blazer, some traditional skill and thinking, reliable one speed wipers for the cost of a large pizza..
     
  11. I've installed 3 in my '40-'41 p/u's..anyone on the fence should consider it the ONLY one to use.

    I have them in my 51 Ford F1 and in my 57 Mercury before that and they both worked great. Probably one of the few things I have bought that I didn't have to modify.
