I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

The later, bottle mounted pumps work strictly off of power and ground. The pump will operate for as long as you hold the button/switch for it. So, you can't really just run a wire from the wiper motor to it for it to work, as there really isn't one that does that job. You would have to run two wires to the pump(12v+ and a ground), and then run the power thru a switch of some sort. Lot of trouble, if you ax me.
There are "rebuild" kits for the wiper-mounted pumps. I did the '74 a couple of years ago. I think I got the pump kit from Paragon, or Zip...can't remember.

btw...the bottle I have(pictured above) is from a '77. I took it off of one we were building as a custom a few years back. I took a lot of stuff off that car to save for future "needs"($$$)
