Hey guys/gals....I'm in need of an original wiper switch for 1958/1959 Chevy Truck. It's the electric type not the cable type. If you got one, please email me [email protected]

Thanks, Steve

I bought an original electric wiper motor off ebay some years ago for a 55 2nd. It used the same switch as the vacumn.

Is this what you need?

no...it's not a cable operated wiper motor. After taking it out of the dash I found out that it was original and is an all electric motor not operated by a cable but by a switch. thanks

Was this change to an electrical switch in the 58-59 TF trucks?

late 58, the elec motor design changed as well, and the transmitting arms as well .... some 58's [mine!] have the earlier version, probably because of having had the vacuum-elec conversion done at a dealer because the 58-9 vacuum wipers used the earlier arms
