Default dual wipers 31 s/w 4dr

I just bought a 31 slant window, "B" I believe. cowl lights, spare on rear, and it has dual windshield wipers, I just noticed this. Was that a option or???. really good looking professional job with seals and ever thing else.
great forum and loads of info.

My brother had a fordor that had dual wipers. The passenger side wiper ran off the driver's wiper motor with a linkage. It was a period accessory, not from ford.

Welcome to to FORD BARN
How about some pics of your new car. We can confirm if you have an A, B C.

Your fordor is twice the car mine was when I got it, since mine had no wipers on the car whatsoever.
These cars were set-up for a drivers wiper and thats it.
If you have two, and it works and most importly looks good/right...count your luckly stars.
I will install a wiper down the road, but right now it is very low on my list, since I do not drive in the rain, sleet/snow/ice.
If it's not a nice day... I'm not driving it, the under carrage is nice and clean and I'm going to keep it that way.

Newport Engineering makes a dual wiper set-up that I have been looking at. My '31CCPU came to me with only a single hand wiper, and even that doesn't work very well at it's best.
