Hi Corky,
Attaboy fella, good luck with the final push.
You may already have a bracket welded to the top rail of your front bulkhead. Under the scuttle ?
That should provide you with a mounting for a three bolt wiper motor, Lancia, Alfa or whatever you can get your hands on.
After that you need a wiper spindle which has enough threaded length to go through your bodywork. Probably not such a great length on your LB body. The old Corse body you had might have been 1/2" thick where the spindle penetrates the body.
You can make up a simple linkage to join motor to spindle.
I found out recently that the length of the arm directly fixed to the spindle is the only thing which affects the arc the wiper arm moves through.
I can post you a picture of s typical Corse linkage next time I'm on my PC.
See also a recent thread which described somebody else's experience in fitting a boat/yacht single wiper motor which had an integral spindle.
