I think this is fairly recent, most of the places I went to, The countermen were surprised that they didn't carry the parts anymore. Carquest and NAPA specifically.

DID you try Carquest blades refills part number 453-150 ? They ought to be
able to order them from the their warehouse. I just bought thee for my 65

Got a bit of a surprise when I went out to buy some new wiper blades for my
66 Corsa, The refills that slide into the original wiper arms are no longer
available, you have no other choice except to buy the complete black
plastic, made in china , wiper arms. I went to autogroan, adrancid auto
parts, poop boys, Napa, carQuist, and a couple of local flaps and got the
same story from all of them, the refills had been sent back to the
manufacturer and were no longer available. Finally found two sets at a local
mom & pop parts store. I guess wiper blades are joining 13" tires and other
parts that are hard to find.
