Default wiper recomendations on 67?

Okay time for some new wipers, any particular brand you folks use, or should I visit the local evil corporation (wal-mart) and get a blade?

OOOH get those bright flourscent pink double wipers that are on all the cool hondas, you know, they have wings..

Just kidding, dont do anything like that. Otherwise just make sure they fit and dont scratch the glass. if you live in a heavy snow area and actually drive the car in it (I do and I dont drive my toys in it) you can get the heavier snow blades, but for a summer or southern car, they arent needed. We have had good luck with pretty much all the blades we have tried, even from the wally werld place. You need to break the mirror in the back next to the big plasma screens..

I am sorta **** retentive with my 65, so I only buy the rubber inserts so I can keep the 65 windshield blade itself. Works for me......However, I cuss those chrome things during the summer when I am heading into the sun and the reflection off them hit me squarely in my eyes. Out come the super dark sunglasses.

Wally world may have them, but best I remember, I got them at Autozone or pepboys or one of the other chain parts places. For my 65, I got the 15 inchers, and they work just great. And, no funny remarks about my messy workbench. I have been busy building stuff.

well had to get some from wally world and they did have them. Turns out the PO got them from the same place, I would have gone down to the auto parts store as to avoid adding any more money to you know who, but alas stupid idaho everything is closed on sunday!

I just get the Anco from anywhere that has them cheapest (usually wally world). I've tried Rain-X, those triple edge things, some other expensive one, and probably more, but the cheap ol' Anco's last just as long and work just as well.[&:]


We know you don't build things, only clean and paint. Who you trying to fool?

Hey! I just finished this sucker and got it mounted. Now, maybe the Purple Martin's will come visit this Spring.
