Hi group.
My son and I just purchased a 55.
My first application that I would like suggestions on is the upgrade to electric wiper motor conversion.
Thanks, Ed upstate NY.

Welcome aboard, glad to see another 55 on the board.Pictures are a must, we love pictures.
As far as electric wipers go probably The Newport Engineering unit is the most popular conversion and they get my thumbs up for ease of installation and the look of being original. Here is a link from another related thread you might find interesting .There are a couple ways to install this unit but using a stud is by far the easiest...... Lost in the fifties ...Tedd
