In part 60 of this epic saga: I adapt a number plate lamp to replace the severely corroded original. I then coax the old vacuum wipers into action but find a problem with the wiper control mechanism. Remember my broken fuel pump? I fix it properly using parts from a n.o.s. pump.
I Hope you enjoy this offering. Don't forget: Keep it real! Keep it cheap! Mart.

Not gonna lie, I had to google coax to see if that is really how it was spelled.
My brain will forever translate that into co-ax as in coaxial. Lol

Aside from that I always enjoy your videos
Marvel mystery oil or a little transmission fluid is great for those vacuum wipers.

I pumped MMO into my wiper vacuum hose from under the hood, found a puddle on the floor under the dash, the hose had a crack in it.
