Is the wiper connecting link and drive Link that reside under the cowl clear/ primer & body color? I did spot some body color on both links so guessing that they are installed either with primer of just clear and when the cowl got painted, they got body color?  I'm currently sorting some parts for primer and clear.  Not sure on the wiper motor link assembly.

The arms are plated black, the pivots are natural, and the link that connects to the wiper motor is silver cadmium.

These were installed long after the body was painted, so there should be no signs of body colour on them :alan2cents:

An order of DP90LF primer came in.  Time to have some fun.  I thought I saw a skosh of green paint on one of the linkages, but we are good.

Thanks again.

@Floyd that looks fantastic.

Did you restore it yourself or have a recommended source?

I take no credit.  I sent it to Stephan Fournier in Canada for resto.  He does really nice work. I can post contact info if needed. 

That said, it's probably a bit of overkill to spend a bunch on theses parts.  They're pretty hard to see once installed.

It's all in the details Floyd. 8) But it looks like you know that. :perfect10:

I could use that contact info. Thanks.
