Looking for a manual windscreen wiper assy for my newly acquired Manx.
I have seen the ones made by VW Aircooled Society and they look pretty good.
Unfortunately it seems like those guys are out of business.
So any ideas would be gratefully received.
I need to get my new baby a safely check and registered.
Also if you have one to sell........
Aloha!

Could look at Speedway, & mostly at other hotrod parts suppliers for TBuckets. Hand-powered isn't all that practical, but still sold. Passes legal requirements - in most cases.

Marcus...

Forgot to add: Restoration/Re-pop companies for Ford Model T.

I had to supply one on my manx in Idaho to be legal. I used a spare window crank handle, a bolt and a bug wiper arm to make mine.

Funny thing is: Idaho, at the time didn't require a windshield, but required a wiper. I made the thing in front of the ISP officer and he said it passed.

Search UTV/golf cart manual wiper. Lots of options out there.
