Dear all,

I am desperately seeking for a pair of wiper arms & blades for my `58 Series 62K. My resto workshop has lost them by sloppiness (I’m mad as hell….), so I need to find some replacement. Previously it had the original delicate chrome Tricos fitted on, but what I can find on the web is just parts like the sturdy Anco stainless stuff. I have contacted Ed Cholakian, Honest John and Arizona Vintage, but there has been no reply yet. Seems there is arms on the web for any model from 1941-1982 in any state from NOS over used to repro, but none for `57/´58. Anyone able to help with something lying around in his garage?

Best regards
GG

Did you find them or do you still need these?

Cam-o-matics are getting real scarce.   You can use a regular wiper arm of the proper length til you find a set.   I think I got mine from Summit racing, but the parts stores may have too.   You might try the "wiper guy" but when I did he was clean out and that's a few years ago.   Keep checking Ebay and the Cad parts palces, but be prepared to pony up over $150 of a good set.

All,
thanks a lot for all the hints & tips. Ed Cholakian had a pair of used arms & blades which I ordered. The price was really horrifying and well above $150 - these parts are worth their weight in gold obviously. Nevertheless - got some  :)
Thanks again for your help, guys!
