Are we there yet??????

Cool pics of that old servo, from the old bakerlite switches looks like they dispensed Ampol & Shell back in the day. Awesome

Great pictures Blacky

Those paintings are brilliant as is the creativity in the metal work art. I love that model A truck

What happened to the wagon? Do I see a length of brake pipe on the ground there?

Have a great trip all and look forward to following your updates along the way

Reading this I thought you were going to fit the handles with tek screws Mobile phones are great…… when they work.

Have a great time and safe travels

Hey Ed,

I think this is the hex part Rob is referring to. This is on a B block engine.

Excellent, glad it worked ok

Correction to the earlier diagram, refer to below for amendment

Keep on going. Plenty of willing helpers here in sunny S.A for a midway service & tune up

Thanks Clay. This is how I did mine and works ok.

Get your ohm meter to check the three position / two terminal switch functions as shown below.

If that is all good then it can be wired as per below. I understand the timer has an off switch incorporated as part of the adjustment ...

Can you remind me what wiper motor you have and how many positions & terminals the switch has?

Bloody thing - every time I back off in neutral the bloody thing stalls and it still has bugger all oil pressure at idle

Hmmm….. wouldn’t think the two issues are related? Wonder if the timing needs checking?

Thanks Stephen, yeah mate. Was just looking at your intermittent wiper solution, but not sure if it will work with the circuit board I have, which is same as Blacky used. You didn’t use a relay? I have said if many a time: I am an electrical idiot.

Front bar looks good Clay. See you have gone for the streamline front and deleted the over riders
