1970 Coronet R/T Project (Dasfusca's Car)

My guess is your motor and arm don't belong together...
That appears to be a two speed wiper arm... What motor have you got?

3 speed motor, 3 speed switch, I think the linkage is the one that was on the car. Eldubb440 provided a pivot but I think I kept the actual arms separated. I gave the parts I didn't use back to him. Any pic of the 3 speed linkage arm handy? Part number?

 

[1 Wild R/T]

The arm is 2822273 but the linkage that travels over to the wiper post is also different....

70 3 speed linkage..

Found this. I’ll check what I have

 

[DasFusca]

All the parts are 3 speed. So which way does it point on The motor?

 

[DasFusca]

I found this.

I worked on the AC. The rubber lines would land on the exhaust manifold, so to stop this, I am making a bracket out of a heater hose holder. Same job different side of the engine. I had to fabricate a twisted mount to support the the lines. I am attaching it to the exhaust manifold. Didn’t want to use the valve cover bolts. I will post a picture of the bracket when it's finished.

I have a horn again. So the R/T got her voice back.

I am cleaning one of the last disgusting under dash pieces. Water is black after a soak.

I got this wheel for the R/T years ago. It’s a 1968-69 wheel that is all original and unrestored. This might be too nice to put on my r/t. It has no cracks and unpainted chrome. I’ve been saving this wheel

for 20 years waiting to put it one the car. I am not sure I have it in me to drill 1970 holes for the ring.

Trade it off for the correct one then.
