It looks like it's gonna take longer to get the cables on the drive pulley for the wipers than it took to
build ther motor. You must need hands the size of a 5 yr old. Any Suggestions appreciated.
Thanks Ron, :004:

Ron,
   I feel for you. A friend of mine that has won the big Ford show in Pa. told me when I first got my car that whatever I did, leave the windshield cables alone if they work. If they don't,  pay Ed Martin ( Hoffman Body Shop ) in Akron, In. to fix it. So I greased the shafts and left them alone. Good luck.

My friend Richard (Blue 57 Custom 300 w/427 FE) has helped me, and several others.  His hands aren't small but he knows all the tricks.  We will be at the Fountain Valley 50th Anniversary Car Show Saturday June 9 and all three of the cars we are showing have had the cables reinstalled with Richards help.

Thanks for the replies guys. Got lucky today and they work fine. More luck than talent. Just happy it's done.
