face=Arial>Like Jim already mentioned, the wiper arm set screw probably came
loose. You can try and re-tighten it, but it'll probably do it again. Another
fix is to file a "flat" on the wiper shaft for the set screw to "bite into".

face=Arial>The best fix, however (if you don't mind it not being 100% correct)
is to locate a complete 70 only type 3 wiper motor unit (transmission, wiper
arms, and wiper motor), and install it. It's the last year the wiper arms park
on the left (71-on parked on the right), and the wiper shafts still fit
into the stock 70 and earlier body holes in the cowl. You can then either
drill the holes in the cowl out for new larger 70 seals, or you can use
some left over engine seals out of a complete gasket kit to seal the
shafts to the cars body. Either way works, as I've done it both
ways.</FONT></DIV>

face=Arial>I did that mod on my 65 Notch 13 years ago, and haven't had an
issue since. But finding the parts IS the tricky part of that mod, as they are
1 year only parts. They use the cap nut like the 71-on version. Just so you
know, none of the 71-on parts interchange, except the 71 wiper switch (as it's
still in the dash), and the aluminum cap nuts.</FONT></DIV>
