Wiper motor mount rusted out
Hi, I have a 69 c10 w/o AC and my wiper motor fell out from under the dash. Seems like the mount and little hole where it comes through have completely rusted through.
I was wondering if there are any companies that make a patch panel for that part. I've checked with LMC and Brothers and they don't offer a patch panel for that. Kinda guessing I may have to start calling up junkyards and seeing what they have unless y'all know of any other place to get it. Thanks |

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
I have the same issue. My recently purchased truck came with two replacement pieces from donors. Question for the bodywork specialist - what would you estimate the labor charge to replace this portion using my supplied part? I have it out for quote - just want a sanity check on the number. BTW, the other part will be available once the shop decides which part to use.
Thanks, Mark |

Not sure on the charge for labor I think it varies a lot depending on the area. You can't sell parts on here unless you are a paying member. You can give stuff away free though. We have another member on here from Mt Airy. LockDoc

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
Yeah, I assume the mid Atlantic region is higher than most. I was planning on giving away the extra part once I'm done.

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
$500 and up considering the time to cut the old one out and make the replacement fit , moving everything that's in the way under dash welding , sealing,prime and paint ,reinstalling motor and assembly I wouldn't be surprised to see a $1,000 . The hard part will be finding a body shop willing to take it on , most are only panel replacement shops today ,they'll make more $ changing a bumper cover than dealing with your cowl repair .Sad but true !
![]() There is a guy in Knoxville who only does sheet metal repairs no body work no paint work just welding sheet metal repairs and he's backed up for over a year if your on the waiting list WITH a deposit ! @ $100.00 an hour

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
Knoxville? You mean just up river from Brunswick along the tracks by the Potomac before you cross over into Virginia at the foot of South Mountain?

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
Thought I started documenting this elsewhere on this forum but cannot find it.
I have a 69 GMC 1500 with the wiper mount gone also. Having a good one to look at and measure, it is not a big deal to build your own. This where I am today May 31, 2017, should be done tomorrow. https://youtu.be/C93EtnDRFUo. Last edited by johnac; 06-01-2017 at 11:48 PM. Reason: too many repeat pics |

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
Part 2 of repair, orientating the wiper motor in the cowl.
https://youtu.be/mMq6BMrWGCk You can see the results of mounting the motor 90 degrees from the correct position. Apparently the wiper arm hit the cowl, so they bashed the cowl down with a rod and big hammer to get it to clear. Probably why the pickup has a new windshield.

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
Part 3 video is up: https://www.youtube.com/edit?o=U&video_id=mMq6BMrWGCk
Took a wide variety of tools and a lot of cab aerobics, but the area where the wiper motor mounts to the cowl is cleaned and straightened. Also the motor mount has been orientated to the motor. The little C-clamp in the picture was very handy for straightening the edges and manipulating the metal. |

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
The repair is ready for paint, the corners of the cowl were rusted out so they got patched up also. A before painting video is here: https://youtu.be/RxLNZmHwn8I

Re: Wiper motor mount rusted out
The hole through the cab is a rough cut to begin with right? Here's what mine looks like on a rust-free cab. They didn't use anything that resembles clean work, but it works.
