    Fitted the wiper motor inside, shortened the wiper arm and blade to fit the small windshield.
    I purposely moved it more to the center so the motor wouldn't obstruct my vision. This last year we only had 7" of rain so I'm not to concerned about it's position. Just have to have it to pass inspection.
    After testing the wiper I removed it and moved on to mounting the mirrors. One of these days (soon I hope) I'll take the body off to cut holes in the dash for the AC, then mount the hood.

    Thanks. I’ve had it since new, going on 21 years old soon. For most of it’s life it’s been on steroids.
    You may dig this pic even more.
