Hello, Anyone know what replacement wipers I should be looking for for a '76 Chieftain? Thanks.

I had found vintage wiper blades at NAPA and also on the web using vintage wiper blade as my search keywords.  But, holy cow!  Expensive!

If it really doesn't matter and you'd like to make it easier and a lot less expensive, take a look at this topic on changing to new type blades:

FYI for anyone interested. I found these on eBay... They're the same as what I had (the originals?), the only difference being black metal instead of silver:

NOTE: The first picture is not representative of the blades for sale. Look at picture 2, the single blade... Also, don't make the same mistake I did. This auction is for (1) one blade. If you need two, you need to buy two... So $17 bucks total. ... Maybe a person could message the seller before purchasing and talk him down a few bucks on a 2nd blade, since they're shipping together...  i??
