    I am trying to winterize two vehicles and I need a little help. First off, my '38 ford pickup needs an electric wiper motor but I don't want anything made in China (just tossed one in the dumpster). Second, my '48 ford tudor needs a heater without a/c and since the firewall has been cut underdash space is limited. I would appreciate any info as to what to use and where to get it (I prefer wrecking yard parts- I have several rod buddies in the business). Thanks, Troll.

    look at a VW bug wiper ***y. works great on a 32-34 PU--don't recall if there's enough space betwee cowl top and ws frame on you 38, though.

    Wrecking yard-mazda ford courier Heaters are small and work well. I also have ran wiper motors off boats before in a pinch. I know I know

    MightyWiper for the motor, best in the buisness, VintageAir for the heater/defroster unit Isold both when I was in the buisness, never had a complaint about either. Bowtie...

    I used a phoenix, made by perma-cool, available through summit racing. Look online, you wont find it in the catalog. It is smaller than a vintage air and is about 30 bucks cheaper. Its 3 speed and will flat burn you up. Its great. Around 139.00 dollars
