Re: wiper arms and blades

John,
Over the years there were several variations of the wiper blades produced for service. Your '57 should have polished stainless 12" blades with plastic tips and rubber inserts with dots. This article might help you create something from parts that resembles originals (click link and look for "Manufacturing Replacement Wiper Blades" article on page 3).
