Chevette rear wiper page !
( Pictures were kept small to promote load time )
Thanks to the legendary Ed Pink ( of Canada ), who was kind enough to provide me with a complete rear window/washer assembly, I can present this page with views of one of the rarest Chevette options. I haven't had a chance to install it yet, so I will have to modify my text someday, but at least I can post photos of this rare factory option !
Photos of the rear cover that installs to the rear hatch area. Note the cool sound deadening ( attempt ) material. Unfortunately, Ed sent me the wrong color. :-)
Motor shown as it would bolt through the hatch, with wiper stem protruding.
Motor shown as it would bolt to the hatch, with removable bracket shown. This is what the cover would hide. I don't have a rear wiper arm yet, but I have checked them out at the auto parts store, and I have found a universal arm that will probably work perfect.
Rear washer reservoir bottle. This is installed behind the plastic panel on the passenger side. Note the electric pump motor on the bottom of the reservoir.
Dash mounted switch. Goes between the ashtray and cigarette lighter on that small
strip of metal.
A compilation of all the "stuff" required, except of course for the wiring and washer hose.
When installation day comes, I'll document all the work involved in installing this equipment, and any problem areas that may develop.
Once again, many THANKS to Mr. ED PINK for sending this stuff to me. He didn't ask for any money, not even for shipping, only the return of a favor someday. A favor I look forward to repaying ! Ed's website can be found here.
