Title: wiper blades
Post by: G HIGGINS on January 29, 2016, 08:15:44 AM
Hi everyone:
                   I ordered wind shied wiper blades they sent me a anco # 20-09 but this doesn't fit my wiper arm. Wiper arm has Canada 1936-38-39 and patents numbers on it. Also the end where blade hooks on says Canada 1935.
                   My car is a 1939 LaSalle. Thank You for any information on the correct wiper blades.

    Some ANCO blades need ANCO arms. Your car came with a Trico wiper system. The blade Glen has posted is the factory type, 5ply blade. The factory arms were a casting on the car end and stainless steel bar with a spring to pull it to wjndshield .They had a  slit in the end for the blade. Trico  replacement arms had a curved end that went into another style blade. Your ANCO blade might work with this type. Trico also made a replacement with a stainless part in place of the casting,these take the 5ply blades too. This type arm /blade may be available from Ford suppliers,check lengths. Warren

Glen thank you. This is what my wiper blade looks like. But the anco 20-09 doesn't fit. Do you know where I can get the correct blade? Original arm is in great shape.

Warren thank you
