The hardtuned 1965 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GT

Wiper Motor: The wiper motor wasn't actually mounted in the car when I purchased it. So it sat on a shelf for who knows how long. Before taking apart a wiper motor on a 1958 Fiat Multipla for Stevenson Restoration, I figured it would be good to try and clean up the wiper motor on the GT to see if I could make it work. I also was fortunate enought to have a spare wiper assembly from Larry E, which came in handy for the wiper arm bushings, as one of mine was damaged. The bushing swap wasn't 100% successful as it would pop off with the torque of the wiper. I had to pull the wiper mechanism back out of the car and cut an end from Larry's arm and weld it on to mine, which works great. Later I took Larry's motor apart, cleaned it, and made it run again also... There's a video link of the wipers in action below also.
