A question for Number Dummy...

I have a 1961 Ford F100 Unibody Custom Cab 292. My question is... On the inside of the windshield wiper arms are marked trico not Fomoco. Did trico supply them to Ford? they appear to be the original style...

thank you... Bill.

Over 80% of the parts on these trucks FoMoCo bought from outside sources. The days when Henry made nearly everything in-house, vanished after the "Whiz Kids" arrived after WWII ended.
