    I was talking the folks building my ePup, and they think that one of the new wiper motors from Newport Engineering could be adapted to my Econoline.

    You can get intermittent wiping and that sounds pretty cool to me. My motor is shot anyway.

    Has anyone tried this? The mounting plate for the 1962 Falcon looks really similar, but I don't have one in front of me.

    Anyone care to comment?

    There is a motor that can be used, I think it's the later 2 speed motor, with a delay control from a 70's bronco. If you get the right configuration it all plugs together. Vic Lafontaine has the information. I think there is a thread on it. I looked into doing this a while back and sourced the later control and switch, but got side tracked on some other stuff.
