This is the original 1969 Road Runner wiper motor in perfect condition

Very easy to convert a three-speed to a two speed and change the actual speed with the low speed between the low and medium and the high between the medium and high… way better than the high and low on both the three speeds and two speeds… does; however, require some basic electrical knowledge...

Well… I switched my 3-speed wiper motor to a 2-speed‼️ Changed the low speed to move a bit faster and the fast speed to move a bit slower… overall much better setup. When looking at it from the engine bay it’s a 3-speed wiper motor. It can be switched back to original 3-speed in about half hour...

Additional Information

One important thing that I did forget to mention was when using the Indy aluminum heads you also have to go with the TTI Headers due to the angle of the exhaust ports. The Indy head configuration with the TTI headers really push the exhaust out much faster than the other (well known) heads. The...

Indy Cylinder Heads built my engine which include Indy aluminum heads. It’s a 572 with 918 hp and 900 lbs torque and never goes beyond 220 degrees in hot summers with AC blasting. Those Indy heads are the best I’ve ever used… and I’ve tried them all. Not saying others are not good… a lot are...

The body shop took nearly two years just to remove everything to bare metal and bring it back to life. There’s not one drop of Bondo or body filler anywhere on the car… the reason it took so long for the body work. There was; however, plenty of rusted out places with lots of daylight shining...

When I purchased my 69 Road Runner, I had finally given up on finding an Ivy Green Post car. My original 69’RR, purchased new Oct 1968, was an Ivy Green Post car and I really wanted to relive that car. Once the body/paint shop started the process of removing all the paint, it was discovered...

There are several aftermarket (restoration) vendors that sell “professional-level” absolutely perfect restoration horns. All are cheaper than paying to have an original horn restored. I have three horns, one is the original horn that was on the car when I bought it (still in excellent condition)...

Unless you are dead-set on 100% original restoration look, I suggest swapping the amp gauge for a volts gauge. A lot easier to install and more accurate. After coming close to having a stroke while dealing with all the original gauges, I finally gave in and went with the Dakota Digital Cluster...

I took this route… all the gauges needed plus tach

After going through the many-many-many headaches and and all the gauges (that were inaccurate) I then went to the below dash gauge setup with four gauges in a custom billet holder, which looked pretty good. Even went with Stuart Warner gauges for a retro look. After completing the interior I...

Don’t laugh, but I did the opposite… wired my “original” 3-speed wiper motor (in perfect condition) to work as a 2-speed. Did a few electrical changes so that both the slow and mid speed an operate a bit faster. The original fast speed was way too fast and the slow speed way to slow. Now they...

I’m sure I’ll catch some flack for the way I went, but will share nevertheless. When I initially purchased the 69 RR, it was an all numbers-marching 383 (special order car) equipped with a near-perfect air grabber setup. Knowing the stock hood would not fit over the engine setup (huge Indy with...

I have a 26 inch Griffin (Exact Fit) Radiator with two 12inch electric fans and custom stainless steel shroud for the slightly oversized fans. Keeps the 572 (900 hp) huge stroker Indy racing wedge at an acceptable temp
