Seems like that could be why my wipers end up parked like this; in the center of the windshields. So if I reverse BOTH shafts (not sure what you mean without a diagram) that should solve the issue?  A prior owner must have  installed  the current  wiper assembly incorrectly, but the wipers actually run pretty well.  

I have the opposite problem. My 1947 P15 wipers work but “ park” in the upright position angled slightly against the windshields center divider. From pictures I’ve studied they are supposed to lay flat against the bottom of each windshield when in the parked or off position. Does any know how to reverse this?  I’m pretty sure they are still vacuum operated.  ... and yes I’m extremely thankful I have any wiper action at all on this car!

Thanks for the shift picture. I am taking delivery of a 1947 Plymouth with a 3 sod column shift and I don't want to look like a complete newbie  I've had many old cars and many manual shifts but no column shifts!

Hi, does anyone have a photo of what an original “Chrysler Corporation Serial Number Tag” should look like on a 1947 Plymouth (car).  The one I’m looking at is on the firewall, driver’s side.  It looks too simple to me to be an original one.  I’m wondering if someone perhaps made their own to display the serial number.  The vehicle has a “Body Tag” on the firewall, nearby the Serial # tag and another tag in driver’s side door jam, near the hinges.
