When mine did the same, it turned out the wiper motor had died. Its an inexpensive and easy fix. If I remember correctly, about 30 bucks and a half hours time.

I have the same problem with my '69, when I hit the switch i get nothing. The valve under the wheel column will open the hood section, so somthing works but no wipers. i am with ya....
