http://www.angelfire.com/rant/hellfish65/other.htmlHere are some pics of my 56 F-100. This was my Dads truck. I'm trying to get it back on the road and Im almost there. Where can I find a windshield wiper motor that wont make me have to get a loan? ------------------

I'm not sure how much you were getting quoted, but we just got one from Bob's F-100 Parts in Riverside, CA. We actually traded a door and some other parts for it, but I believe they go for 147.00.www.bobsf100.com A great bunch of people!!! They have a ton of used parts also. Give them a call, and they will send you a catalog. Renee' By the way, you truck looks GREAT! I may be getting a 56 all to my self, and my Hubby is getting rid of the 55 in favor of a 55 Panel. Hope you won't mind if I ask you some questions about your truck, such as the Chop top!! That looks awesome!!! ------------------

Dustin, The electric wiper motor and triangular mounting bracket are the same on 1956-1960 trucks. You can probably find them cheap on the '57-'60 trucks because nobody wants that series.Tracy ------------------
