1967 Charger 3 speed wiper motor restoration

[Dean Prevolos]

I need to have my 3 speed wiper motor restored to work and look like the original finish. I read a thread that Concours Creations in Orange City was the man to go to. I tried to contact him and found out thatbhe is no longer in business but teamed up with [email protected]. Reached out to Kim and he emailed me that they lost their shop space due to a leaking roof? Anyway left him a voice-mail still waiting for an answer.

So does anyone have a reliable source to restore my 3 speed wiper motor, it would be greatky appreciated.

Thank you in advance, Dean.

PS- My wiper motor wires all go to the connection plug with the exception of one wire that goes into the firewall block on its own. Have not figured that out . Any comments are appreciated.

There was a thread here a while back which was a beware on Kim.
I'm not recommending either way just an FYI.

Topher McGuiness(sp) the Headlight Motor Man might be doing them.
I am a little surprised that you have a 3 speed and not a variable switch and motor.

He is. He just finished 2 for me along with 2 heater blower motors and a headlight motor. Pics when I receive them. He is in NC.

The variable speed setup is called a 3 speed motor that is what he has.
Variable = Speed 1
Low Speed = Speed 2
High Speed = Speed 3

I am not very knowledgeable about this, but my switch does not click at each speed. The wiper speed just increases as I turn the knob. I do have some that click and give actual speeds as you describe. To me it looks like my switch might have a rheostat, if that is the correct terminology. Appreciate any clarification/information. Thanks.

According to the Dodge sales brochure it's called a "variable-speed".

I agree. But somehow the motors are always referred to as 2 or 3 speed.
Below is what i was thinking of probably didn't explain it very clearly.

Thank you as well, now I have two sources to call. It looks like Bruce has been restoring wiper motors for a long time and I like his hours of operation 9am-9pm PST.

I stand corrected in my terminology, according to my 67 Charger Illustrated Facts and Feature Manual, the "standard" wipers are "two-speed" and the "variable-speed wipers" are optional. So yes I have the variable speed wipers. Thank you for that detail.

Thank you for the lead for Topher, that makes three choices I have to go to. The Forum always comes through. I am finding out that the 66-67 Chargers are unique in many ways from other year Mopars. My Mopar experience has been 69 Roadrunner for 25+ years but this is my first Charger and the Forum has helped me out considerably. Thank you.
