    Just under 200.00 and you can get intermittent for an additional fee. You will have to send your old motor in so that they can put or take the right mounts for the cable ends to connect to the new motor.



    I paid for mine - but still need to ship it off!

    I used one built by Clay Hannah for 13 years on my 1951 Hornet with 12 volts and no problems. I tried same motor with 6 volts and it wasn't fast enough for me. Clay Hannah- electric wiper conversion for step-downs. Clay Hanna Tool Service, 7411 Northeast 71st Street, Oklahoma City, OK 73105 (405) 848-2334



    With 6 volts, I recommend using vacuum wipers.

    Ficken Wiper Service- vacuum wiper motor rebuilding service. 7 day turn around. Hudson motors rebuilt 54.00 plus 5.00 shipping in U.S. Large supply of wiper blades, arms, etc. 132 Calvert Avenue, West Babylon, NY 11704 (631) 587-3332

    Good, that worked. This is a single speed rear wiper motor out of a ???. Attatches to the original stepdown wiper motor mount using simple brackets. The arm that connects to the wires has been removed from the vacuum spindle and joined to the electric motor
