    looking for info re- rear wiper (RS specific)

    just received the following email from GP at info@my356speedster.com and was asked to post here - any help or guidance will be very much appreciated.....

    Hello Porsche RS owners,

    With this email, I want to ask for your help. I am working on the restoration of RS 911 360 0080 and we have some difficulties to resolve.

    One of the questions is the mounting of the rear window wiper and wiper engine. I want to ask you if you have a car with a rear window wiper if you are willing to take some pictures (from different angles) that show how it is mounted in the ducktail.

    If you know someone who has an original RS please let me know so I can contact him/her as well. And if you have some picture can you please inform me of the chassis number so I can determine with mounting option is the closed to mine.

    I want to thank you for your help.

    Regards,

    GP

    Nick / GP,

    In the RS book there is a pic of a rear wiper on a ducktail on p118 but the pic is not so clear.Can someone scan this for GP?
    The pics are from Freisinger's site.No pics of the underside though.
    Some fab machinery on this site - worth an hour of your life to see what you can't afford !

    1971 2.2 911 S - now back in the UK - sob!
    1975 Carrera Targa (ROW) - missed.
    One of us is fast becoming a valuable antique.
