Hi all. Restoring my '68 American import panel van. Wanting to keep it as stock as possible

Can anyone tell me or sell me the 1968 only wiper arms?

They come up every now and then but it's normally individuals selling nos ones. Keep an eye on the samba and ebay as well.

The SWF number on the box in the second samba ad above is correct. The seller isn't correct about the years, with the suggestion they go up to '72. Also its a pity he didn't take a picture of the whole arm out of the box to check the shape/handing, as it is not unknown for Type 3 arms to get mistaken for Type 2.

Are the top ones on the samba incorrect then?

It's worth bearing in mind that if you do decide to buy from the US you may have to pay VAT and a Post Office handling fee as well which can mount up, as I know to my cost.

The arms in samba ad #1867243 are correct.
