Hi Paul,

They are almost certainly not the original arms for a K type but are aftermarket replacement possibly post war.
According to the Lucas reference catalogue, the correct type is a 726,773 (F) (Chrome finish, 6.5" length)





The correct link is a 727,471 (B, chrome finish)





and the correct Squeegee is a L5050/1 (type B)

Here are the ones on my NA which are a slightly later variant.





Note that the link arm is over on the offside and under on the near side.

Happy New Year

Andrew

Thank - you Andrew. The catalogue is good to have.
My handle is maybe misleading as I am not just into K types. The photo is from an L - and as it happens matches what came on a K1.

I am interested in any parts forum members may have - particularly the riveted brackets mounting on the arms but the arms themselves and connecting bars too.

Regards

Paul

Helloh Ktype

Our Dutch friends' site has an article on wiper arms
https://www.mgmmm.com/images/Articles/Artikelen%20Rob/wipers%20MMM-eng.pdf
which I hope you might find helpful.
My L types have an arrangement with arms as theirs L5030/3.

Best regards

Sven

Hi Paul, I think the reproduction ones are available new at Holden's and similar suppliers. I have these ones:





Which you are welcome to but the cost of shipping from Oz may be prohibitive.

They are definitely not original on either a K1 or a L type.

Andrew

BTW.... have the K type control rod labels turned up yet?

Hello Andrew no control labels yet but that is something to look foward to.

I would like yours yes. Without doing down suppliers to our old car activity the tolerancs and geometry of originals is better
