The one time when high and tight on the cage was a bad thing. The engine is back so far, and the dash bar so tight, their was absolutely no room for wipers or linkage.

The AMX was originally equipped with vacuum wipers which was located about where the middle of the intake manifold is now.The engineering involved in making this happen was extensive. Used Fox body Mustang wiper motor because I thought it would be readily available, all the rest of the mechanism was custom. The park position was another challenge because the motor was designed for the PCM to park it.

A lot of work but the modern motor work way better then anything old.
