63 Dart wiper length

[Dartnewbie]

Does anyone know the proper length of the wiper blades for a 63 Dart? Mine seem too short and do not overlap on wiping. I looked at the blades and they do not come off the wiper arms to change them to longer ones. Currently the driver's side is 13 1/4" and the passenger side is 13 1/8". If these are not the correct length, does someone have an extra pair to replace these? I do believe the wipers are suppose to overlap in the middle and not leave a big unwiped area in the center.

Taking a look at your pictures, they seem to be the same size as the ones on my 63 Dart. If the car was here at the new house, I'd run out a measure them for you. Reading this press release from 63, implies that the wipers do overlap though.

Good luck finding a replacement pair.

According to the shop manual, the blade pattern should overlap. Maybe my wiper arm is just down too far to start and needs to be raised a little to make it overlap. Doesn't say much about where it should be in the manual, just near the moulding at the bottom.
