[FC] Two-speed wiper parts wanted

[Paul Steinberg]

You will also need the 2 speed wiper motor and washer assembly.  I have been
told that it is the same as the car.  Also needed is the 2 speed wiper switch
with the washer button in it.  These switches fit the entire Chevrolet line of
cars for that era and have become very hard to obtain ........ even more so if
you want a NOS one.  The harness is also available as a reproduction part from
Clarks Corvair, but Kens would probably be less expensive.  The last parts
that you will need are the washer pieces.  They consist of a washer bag,
washer bag plug adaptor that the hose fits onto, the washer bag mounting
hardware (a metal strip that screws to the van with tabs to hold the bag), and
the nozzle that mounts on the outside under the window.  This part is
difficult to find and when I last checked, Clarks didn't have any.  Don't know
about any of the other vendors, but I would suggest that you stay away from a
used one.  They pit quickly and then they don't work..... Finally, you will
need the rubber tubing..... good news is that it is still available at any
auto parts store....
Paul in CT..... looking for some of the same parts for my FC.

      I think you need the NOS under dash harness that I have for the wiper
  conversion. This is a small harness that plugs in to the existing harness
and is
  just for this purpose.
