Dave Conner's Jointed wiper arms

[Doyt W. Echelberger]

Hello Audifans,

My old 87 5ktq is sitting out front in another Ohio blizzard, with its two 
jointed wiper arms at attention in a drift that has taken up residence on 
the hood and windshield.

I want to thank Dave Conner again, for so wisely including those jointed 
wiper arms in the relief package of wheels he brought to Sandusky about ten 
years ago. The extra set of wheels have been very useful, but the jointed 
wiper arms unexpectedly made every winter a much easier 
experience....because the car sits outside all the time.

I appreciate them today, right now in this blizzard.  Thanks Dave. They 
work perfectly and are still like new.

It is remarkable how the old 5ktq keeps starting and running in all kinds 
of bad weather, year after year. The odometer reads over 300,000 miles.

When the really nasty gales are howling and I have to go somewhere and get 
back home, I depend on the Audi, and am reminded of what a unique and noble 
machine it really is, and how much I respect it and the engineers that made 
it happen....even the ones that designed the door handles and the footwell 
splice.
