I've tried to send this several times and I always seem to run into a snag.
New to the list since last month, so I may be asking something that most of
you have seen before, please bear with me.

I have a '53 five window Chevy 1/2 ton that has several modifications, SB
V-8, Auto, IFS (Pacer), and the worst wiring job in history (almost).  All
done by PO.  Vehicle has been parked for about five years, so I have lots to
do before it goes around the block.

Wiring?  Painless, Ron Francis, ???, someone else?  I am total novice.

Looking for inexpensive and moderately easy swap over from old vacuum to
modern day windshield wiper assembly for my '53 five window.

I saw previous post that said some kits were not all they were cracked up to
be.  If I need to buy a new setup, I would appreciate knowing which ones to
stay away from.

Contact me off list if you would rather not name the product or vendor
on-list.

I also saw someone wrote about going to the "archives";  Is this something
I'm missing or is it something that person did on their own.

Thanks in advance for all the upcoming information and all I've already
seen. I plan on doing everything myself so I plan on reading everything
everyone on this list has to say about all models.


'til next time
