Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 56 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Nov 2010 Posts: 56 | I have '59 Apache that I'm restoring. The wiper motor is electric. I want to replace it with a modern electric motor. All that I've found say I must have the old style vacuum wiper arms and transmission that I don't have. Is there a conversion for the stock electric wiper moter? | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | It's confuseing. I just put one on my 56 to replace the vacuum wipers. The catalog listed it for that purpose but the box said for replace ment of an original electric motor. I was skeptical but it fit perfect. They say money can't buy happiness. It can buy old Chevy trucks though.

I think all the other stuff needed is repoped.
