There were a lot of different wiper blades used in the Model A era, but the most common are the blades that fit closed cars with Trico Vacuum wipers from April 1929-December 1931. These blades were black with 5 ply rubber (black, gray and red) and measured 8 1/4".

I've been searching for months now, to all the common vendors, and no one has any.

Does anyone here have a spare that I could purchase?
Or know of a source?

I may have one. The Trico box says 8 1/4 (Part No. U-778-30TM) but the blade measures 7 3/16". Send me a private message with your email and I can send you pics.
