Got all the wiper parts in today. Just need to wire it up.
Also got my new shocks in the rear. Then removed the front coils and cut 2 coils off. It dropped it quite a bit. But it handles better than ever. Slightly harsh on big potholes/bumps. Nothing rubs. But ground to header clearance is just a couple inches. Need to go slow over speed bumps!

Need wiper motor wiring help. What I have is not coinciding with what my diagram has. Or so I think?

Don't forget those coils will sag with age. It's going to be real low.

You would figure. But the rear are original and are still holding strong! We will see how long it takes to grind down my header flanges
Got the wipers installed, wired and working !!!! Thanks again Ray
Now what I need is a picture of the windshield washer squirter location on a cowl induction hood. Who has some good photos for this big dummy?

You can see mine here, might have to zoom in to see exactly where they are. I currently have a domed hood like on your car.

Your welcome, also the squirters for a cowl hood and a flat hood are not the same. Make sure you have the correct ones. The cowl hoods squirters are longer.

Did a review of this all the post in this thread today. Wow, I forgot all the work you have done to get it to this point. You should be very proud of all the work you have accomplished on this build. My hats off to you.
