Lovely job, coming along very nicely.
Regarding the windscreen wiper, it may be better at the bottom of the screen. My Pytchley has a roof peak almost identical to the Highland Coupe with the wiper through the top of the RP screeen. I find that at anything over 40mph the wiper blade shakes from side to side violently due to air turbulence and at normal cruising speed, about 50 mph, I fear the wiper blade will get ripped off the spindle. It seems that the problem is caused by the roof peak, unfortunately I didn't have my wind tunnel testing facility available during design and construction!
The upside is that with the screen coated in Rainex any rain is blown off immediately.
