over here they often use a wipermotor and drive out of a classic mini it has a flexible ribbed push pull cable running through a pipe and you can just about bend it every way you need to move it and move the capstands where ever you need them to be as long as the cable is long enough and it works
you can either get sumtin from a wreckersyard or buy them new

the gas tank is touching the ground in this pic ? Fighting with myself on deciding if i should go all the way down or just leave the frame alone ?? cant decide ! Yours looks great !

[xxlf250]

thank you ......yup tank is on the ground, I wanted to do more with the frame cutting boxing but I like it as is, room is limited with these blazer's also lots of work in a small space...it's fun!

Mike, Speciality Power Windows offers a wiper kit that is cable driven. The universal kit sells for around $265, they have them for 47-59 pickups. They are easy to install and very good directions....Jim

This is what I'll be using on my square. You can basically mount the wiper motor just about anywhere as long as the push/pull cable will reach the farthest wiper arm mount. A buddy has it on his '32 Chevy coupe and it works really sweet!

LOL, that sounds about right !

i think that is what i will do !

[truckzilla]

Hey Mike,
I'll try to PM you on the passenger door body sill.

Larry

[truckzilla]

Just PM'd you.

[watahyahknow]

thats actually the same setup as the mini only with a little more ajustability , and its allready in the states saving you a bundle in shipping

[raull]

and we are rolling now !!!!!

[67cheby]

yes we are pretty excited about the progress...but it stops now for the next 8 days ! all family time for a week or so and then full speed ahead !

[xxlf250]

I can test fit those tubs on the k5 stuff IF you need?????? so you dont run in to any problems when you put them on yours.

[67cheby]

LOl.....that is a fair offer, i will think about it !

[67cheby]

i am a little puzzled on the rear floor, the front of the floor has bolts in it but the back of the floor is welded, the outside underneath of the rear wheel tubs are bolted and the inside is welded, i havent got my side panels out in the back yet so maybe i am missing something that i will see once i remove those panels, but does the inside floor in the back come out if you unbolt it all ??

[67cheby]

[truckzilla]

You know you'll need it sooner or later!

[truckzilla]

Maybe even keeping it in mind of it being able to be expanded to 20 x 40 to make room for Square Peg in the future!
