I would like to know if any other chev would fit, as it's not easy to get parts here. I'm waiting for 1 from the States but that could be up to 2 months wait. I hope someone can help me please.

Any G-body wiper arm will work.

What side are you looking for? Driver or passenger and do you need the arm and the part that secures the blade? Or just the arm? I'll check and post back.

Actually, I just checked.

I've got both arms along with the plastic wiper blade holder and blades.

The original configuration was the arms with metal blade holders. Like I have on my Elco.

I can double check but I think I might have a gold plated set of wiper arms as well. I'll have to check in my garage for you if you are interested.

I've never shipped to New Zealand before. "?"

I need the left hand (drivers) side one and I guess with the blade part would be best. Thankyou, that is very nice of you. What would you want for the whole thing if you have one?

Wow,

What time is it in New Zealand? It's 2:35 a.m. Out here. A little past my bed time. ZZZzzz :)

I have a full complete set (driver and passenger) for your Elco. I'll take pictures of them and post back if you'd like. In the interim let me figure out a price. Wouldn't you like to get the pair? This way you have a complete set plus one extra.

Here's my email as well. jvazquez29@cfl.rr.com

Hey Richard, I realise you will be tucked up in bed, but forgot to mention that from what I can see, your wagon looks really nice. Well it's 10.30pm sunday night here, so I'm off to get some sleep, so thanks again.
