Anybody know of a source for OD-C1 wiper motors, particularly the rack gear or the straight gear that looks like a mini handsaw or drawing of original so a guy could make one? Thanx...
 
I have an Owen-Dyneto wiper that I will not use. According to the installation instructions (included) this Owen-Dyneto Wiper is for a 1926-27 closed car Model T. It is believed to be NOS. I do not know if this type of wiper was standard or optional from Ford or if it was an era vendor/dealer supplied item for the Model T. However, I have operated the motor and had it apart. The motor and gearing appears to be the same as the OD-C1 wiper motor which according to the Model A Restoration Guidelines & Judging Standards was the only electric wiper supplied for the Model A from the beginning of production in late October 1927 through November 1928. While the motor cover for this wiper assembly will fit the Model A OD C1 and appears very similar to OD-O1 cover, base is different. With the purchase of a new base and cover or usable cover and base I believe a OD-C1 or perhaps a OD-O1 could be made using the motor and gearing. ​
