Does anyone have a source for a complete wiper switch for a 51 Chevrolet 3600?

I don't see a new "switch" to operate a vacuum motor in the aftermarket. The means a wanted ad in our classifieds, Ebay and etc. for a donor. Are you talking about what goes on the dash and has a lever handle? Is your "switch" broken or don't have anything? (BTW: It's not really a switch)

Mine is non-existent. I have seen them before (installed) and you are exactly right on what I'm looking for.

Seems like your choices are:
1. Grab the first donor "switch" you see or are offered. The knob/lever is available in the aftermarket.
2. Switch to electric wipers.
3. Change to choke type cable operated.
4. If all else fails, and you want orig looking, I have another lame idea.
