1966 Catalina wiper blade replacement


Recommended Posts

Hi. I am hoping someone can direct me to where I might purchase original style replacement wiper blades for my 66 Catalina. I’m unsure if the entire piece, including the metal, or just the rubber part is what constitutes a replacement blade. I’m big on originality so am shying away from the big, black replacements out there. The car won’t be driven in the rain except on rare, unexpected occasions. Also, I cannot find any instructions on how to replace them. Thanks in advance for your help. Joel

You can buy the rubber replacement.  Measure the rubber length. 1 end will have a PINCH clamp.  Squeeze the two together and pull the rubber out of the tracks.   Reverse to install.  Have always used Anco replacements myself.

Thank you both for your help. I did remove both by pinching the end clips together and simply sliding them out. Steve, do you happen to know the Anco part number you’ve bought? Mine are 18” and I was looking at Anco W-18. I’m hoping to buy the correct ones so I don’t end up shipping anything back. Thanks again. Joel

Last ones I bought were for the GTO and they are only 14in.  If they are a lil long, you can trim them.  Make sure you stay outside the last fingers of the track.  The pinch clips hold the rubber in both directions.
