Is there a conversion kit to replace the vacuum motors on a '56 Fleetwood with electric motors.  I know the electric motors are out there, but is there a plug-and-play kit that I can install that does not require me to do extensive re-wiring to get the wipers to "park" in the "down" position?

Thanks.

Andy.
If I can't eat it, scratch it, drive it or change its channel, then I'm not interested.

Check with a gentleman named Danny Tate. He runs WiperWorks. His email address is....

Thanks Fins.  I just sent Danny and email. Hopefully he can help.

Check out New Port Engineering's website. I would have included the link but I could not paste it. Their motor drops into the vacuum motor's mounting. Wiring is staight forward and you have a choice of a 2 speed or intermittent switch. They park where they are supposed to.
