[Roadsters] (68-70 wiper blades ?)

[Pete Peters]

Might check with Victoria British, the B-Hive, Moss Motors, and other
British car suppliers. Leigh Brooks (aka shifty) purchased Tex mirrors for
the Rat from one of them:

I found a link to the manufacturer, Tex Automotive, but it looks like they
only sell this product in England, no shipping to the US. Here's a photo of
the blade they make for the roadster.

Looks like a nice looking product, now just need to find out how to buy
it...

Craig,      

Actually I am referring only to the wiper blade assembly (rubber squeege &
metal blade). I have the correct wiper arms, it's just the wiper blade
assembly doesn't look like it should on this period car. I checked my 69
roadster & it just has a black Anco replacement wiper. I guess, I'm looking
for one that's silver or stainless steel. I did find this product for
classic cars on the web at

http://www.motoringclassics.co.uk/bayonet-wiper-blade/p1922>

It shows a 14" bayonet blade assembly in stainless steel or hand polished.
Anyone ever bought these?
