FREE !!!!

I have a vacuum wiper out of my 51 f1.if anyone wants it you can have it,justpay for the shipping.I also have 2 defroster ducts free of charge,dont worry about the shipping .I bought a junk box at a yard sale and the defroster ducts were in there.they are the part that screws into the dash,but they have no tubes.i took a piece of pvc pipe and made my own.my 51 did not have any ducts in it.the ones that I made worked out just great.i just want to help anyone that I can.i will be looking to see if I can find anything else that I can give away.

A little bit O/T..... A little trick I learned while configuring electric wipers for my 49 is: I used a passenger side defroster duct on the drivers side of my set up. I worked perfectly to allow clearance from the electric motor and to install the hose from the heater.

I'd be interested in the defroster ducts if you still have them. My old truck didn't have them either. Very happy to cover shipping and your time!

Not to hijack this thread, but...
Which electric wiper set did you go with? I've been debating on going electric, but I don't like the idea of hacking up my defrost vent.

My truck, which came from SC, didn't have the defrost ducts either. I know that the heater was optional but didn't it ever rain down south requiring a defroster?

Later!
