will keep your grandpa in our prayers. Good luck with the testing. The needles and shots aren't what yah got to worry about, its the Doctor with the big fat cold finger that says bend over. Good luck again.

I need some windshield wipers I got some new ones 6 months ago but there the plastic ones the tabs broke and now they just flop around upside down (blade toward the sky).

Anyone have experience with repro all metal blades (nont plastic)?

Or gotta nice set of used ones?

I bought(ordered) my Trico wipers from Advance Auto Parts. They weren't too expensive and they came in the next morning. They're metal and I think the original brand. They got a nice brushed finish that matched my wiper arms nicely.

All of my "used ones" are exactly that. Used, the metal is in good shape, but the rubber is tore or needs to be replaced!

Hope this helps buddy!

Free installation? HMMMM... Do it yourself, or watch some big guy (who sidelines as a plummer obviously) rub his sweaty belly all over your hood.

Make sure you get the ones for a 350. The ones for the 292 must be different cuz they ask you which one you have.

Yeah I started to let some highschool kid (no offense guys) put 'em on and he couldn't even get the old ones off because they install different than newer cars. I stopped him and said, never mind I got it.
And I looked them up online and they were under a 67 chevrolet c-10 w/250L6. All trucks should come up the same. As far as I know all our trucks have the same size wipers.The only difference is when you look them up or go in the store don't let them "c/10 pickup" they won't come up. Just 1967 Chevrolet C10. Engine size shouldn't matter. Hope this clears everything up! :lol:
