I happen to have a soft spot for these Ol Girls.. Do you have anymore pictures you can share with us? And what are your plans for her overall?

 

[Bruce311]

I just got her and plan on keeping her. She doesn' have much wrong n I'll get more pics. I gotta get another ballast, as they keep blowing

Does the ATC II and the wipers work?

 

[Bruce311]

Atc does. Wiper bushing is junk

You can convert it to a 74-77 small wiper cam setup with some donor parts by a little cutting and welding and you won't have any more problems. There isn''t any replacement big cams on the planet and donor cams will just disintegrate in your hands or while removing or mounting it and isn't remotely worth the effort.

I have come across one or 2 people that say the 79 Cordoba big cam (which is totally different cam than the 78 cam) will work. In theory it will if you replace EVERYTHING from the left side wiper transmission to the wiper motor.
