Windshield Wiper Change out
Hello
I have a 1950 F1 with the original vacuum wiper motor. I wanted to know if there is a way to change the actual wiper blade to a modern style that I can use off the shelf wiper blades from Autozone? Has anyone found a way to convert? Thanks

Check out Oreilly's. They tend to carry more vintage line wipers from Anco, etc. Changing out the blade to a "modern" style would require the arm to be replaced. They had a set of 10 and 11" blades right in stock. They even had "WINTER" blades for my 1954 complete with adapters to make it work on my old arms. Good luck.

I only used the stock ones I bought two wipers complete with arms from a supplier in Canada for a ten cdn also changed back to electric kit was a major pain to cut defrost ducts and align up but way worth it in the end
