Re: windshield wiper questions...



I just bought blades for my 64 Polara which would be the same as what you're looking for. Was told by my guy at OReillys that they will be no longer producing them soon. I bought an extra pair. Just something else that will get difficult to find.

I'll look for those. But how will I know if they are correct? I thought the ones I bought were going to fit, but they needed modification. Even now I'm holding my breath until the next rainstorm. Haha
Thanks,

>> Hey folks,
>> The other day I had to replace my wipers for the first time since I've owned my '64 300. I found that the so-called replacements (I think bought from Rock Auto, but I wouldn't swear to it) were not made same way the originals were made, so I had to modify the by using the metal inserts from the old blades and putting them on the new ones. It's kind of a pain, but it seemed to work. Anyway, does anyone know of a source for PROPER replacement blades?
