I used a John Deere wiper to replace the vacuum in my 57. I had to build the transmission from both sides to the motor and make a pivot arm for the wiper pivots. Self park, 2 speed. Works great!!

Some are using the rear wiper motor from a Blazer.
I bought the Newport Engineering kit and it works great on my '48 Chevy 1/2ton.
