Default 40 wipers

Restoring 40 pickup. Plan to have two windshield wipers. I assume that they used two separate motors running off the same vacuum, right? Thanks.

Thanks for the offer, but I currently have 5 of them. I'll be looking for the switches that mount on the dash, plus any necessary linkage. Plus I am needing the chrome nut. I have one but two will be required.

One of my motors is marked 40PU (Left). That leaves me with this question: Was the passenger side motor different? I had hoped that both motors were the same? Any thoughts Barners?

The left (driver's side) wiper will be no problem. It seems I have four of them in the box. But the right one is in question. I have one but don't know what it was set up for. I'll attach a photo of the two styles. Any information will be appreciated. I wonder if they will both use the same kind of switch or whether they are different for left and right? The fun begins. Thanks Barners.
