assuming I manage to get the vacuum pump out of my 1958, does anyone have a good person to rebuild it? I sure would like wipers.

Hi Morgan,

   If you mean the vacuum wiper motor, I used Ficken for my 47 and have been very happy - http://www.wiperman.com/

   If you mean the 2 stage fuel/vacuum pump, I had great service from Then and Now / Antique Auto Parts Cellar - http://www.then-now.com/The_Cellar/cellar.htm

   As I understand it on the later 50's cars there was also a mechanical pump, but afraid I don't have any experience with those.

Would any of these guys be able to rebuild a vacuum radio antennea?  I understand there is only one guy out there working on radio antenneas, and he is a....wellllll, lets say a piece of work.
