On my 67 jumped in the truck to go to work early early morning and no wipers. Been working late and sick. No time yet to diagnos the problem. Check the fuse first right, then ? Any pointers. How much for a new motor ? Worst case scenario....

well if the fuse and fuse holder check out the next thing to check is the switch if you disconnect the wires from the switch find the hot wire and jump it to the wiper wire if the wiper goes than you've got a bad switch

No hot wires on the switch.
take a wire and ground one end to the dash. An eyelet and screwed to teh bottom of the dash would be ideal. When you unplug the switch, the plug has 3 slots. 2 are side by side, and then one further away at an angle. something like this;
II \ (make the two I's into verticle lines)
The outer one of the two side by side, when ground is applied, will activate the high speed on the wipers.
The next one is for the washer pump, and the 3rd one, out on it's own all goofey lookin, will activate low, but only if you ground both it and the high speed slot.
