Windshield Wiper Motors

New arrivals in the storage area are the original windshield wiper motors, which were first cleaned by me, then given to 3 Bros. for servicing, and then painted when they returned here. There was quite a bit of the original paint left on the motor covers, which enabled an almost exact match to be found: it turns out to be the brake-fluid resistant paint , made with stainless steel, by Eastwood's. It's almost exactly the correct (and somewhat metallic) shade of the original motor covers, which has a slight gold tone. Couldn't get all evidence of corrosion off the covers' surfaces, but they appear to have come out pretty well.

Peter at 3 Brothers Classic Rovers replaced the inner wires of the motors, as well as the comm-posts, as they were too tarnished to work with the brushes. The gears were then re-greased, and new external wires prepared for the motors. Both motors were then bench tested for approximately 30 minutes.

A good time to paint the covers, as I'm presently out of Pre to finish cleaning the old adhesive off of the tub's front bulkhead...have ordered more.
