Wipers for 1937 Dodge Pickup
I'm looking for some wipers for my 1937 Dodge Pickup, it came with a single vacuum wiper. It would be great to find a late model wiper assembly that would fit, that also has intermittent that did not require a computer to make it work. The worst thing is limited space and very short wiper arms/blades. I could probably modify the arms but the blade length might be a problem.
They make small electric wipers that will replace the old vacuum style, but they're single speed and have the old style blades that don't work very well.

I was going to suggest the same thing as they make a great kit, but a quick search on their website shows no Dodge pick up kit older than '48. It's maybe worth calling anyway..'35 Ford coupe- LT1/T56, '32 Ford pickup, 70 GTO convertible, 06 GTO

Specialty Power Windows makes a universal streetrod kit that works well. I've had one on my 37 Ford for years. Specialty Power Windows"It is not much good thinking of a thing unless you think it out." - H.G. Wells

I found a wiper kit that worked well, it's from EZWiring Wiper Motor Kits by EZ Wiring, and it was less expensive than any other simular kit.

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
