Studebaker Rockne 1932 wipers

Recommended Posts

I assume   you have a model  65 or 75  closed car .If so ,your wiper motor should have a hole in it  at the end of the shaft . It will accept a wire arm there .The Trico part Number is   #8113 - 7 5/8" .

The blade is a  #U-778-8 1/4". Your vehicle  could have just a single wiper on the drivers side or could have been equipped with the passenger side as well. Below is a photo of a typical setup .

                     Hope this helps

Oh , It looks like someone put a Bosch Electric Wiper motor  on there . A Trico vacuum motor would have been original to the car .  Does the Motor work? and Is it a Tandem Setup where the motor drives both the passenger and drivers side wipers? The Wiper arm pictured looks like a modified arm from an early VW.  It really depends what you want to do . Stay with Electric or go back to Vacuum . and if you want to just have a wiper on the driver's side .

Yes it's a Bosch wiper motor

With a tandem setup

It's still working 

it's not original

Yes, there is still a copper pipe on the intake manyfold, but cut off 

I need only new wiper blades for it

I bought the car 45 years ago and dismantle the car at that time 

Because of covid I started to rebuild the car totally

With people from aaca I couldn't do this job

They gave me a lot of information and about people who have parts for the car 

I'm almost ready to finish the car

Okay Bob

I saw the wiper blades also at a website

But without the arms

I need the arms also

I don't have the vacuum motor

So I have to do it what I have

If it's is working

Thanks and enjoy

Hello .  I could help you with Arms and Blades on  an original setup . But not on a Modified setup . The arm that you have in the Photo are definitely SWF arms  and I don't have any of those .  I have blades that would work that arm which attaches with a cotter pin . You might want to consider  a modern arm that street rodders use with their electric motors . see photo below.
