Trico Wiper Blades
« on: November 20, 2013, 09:14:57 AM »
Does any one have any information on what length a Trico blade holders would have been used on a 12-2-67 Metuchen 68 Mustang. When I got this project one blade holder was missing. I went to a salvage yard and bought one. When I got back to the car I found the one I got was one inch shorter that the one on the car. When compared to our other cars the new one that is 14 3/4 is the same. The one on the car is the correct domed style but is 15 3/4. Was it from a larger Ford product?

     The 15 & 3/4" TRICO is the OE piece for the 69 Mach 1.  Brian

I think 69's originally had ANCO blades. Marty, should be 15" Trico (14.75). I've seen with and without Trico stamping on original cars
