My thing has a non-functioning wiper motor that appears complete but is missing the aluminum cover. Do any of you guys know if any other ACVW wiper motor has a cover the same or similar enough to retrofit to my motor? On a brighter note, I just got it registered and titled this week and have been joyriding it around for the last three days. It's a blast to drive! Cool

I seem to remember reading that the 24V Unimog wiper motor is similar.

Late 60's bugs have the same base wiper motor. That cover is easily sourced. I may have one if you cant find one local.

Cool, thanks guys! It was good fun to see all the different styles of things at the Classic today. I got an new windshield and seal today and came home and installed it into my thing. One more item off the checklist to get it street legal. Very Happy

I dont actually have a jeep wipper moter installed but I have seen a thing with a Jeep wiper motor. I dont know what year jeep but it was new motor and worked perfectly. Maybe you might want to do more research on this.
