looking for toro 69 control valve

My be someone can help: I own since 2008 Toronado 69( Now in Finland ;from Florida ). Many of you knows, how the grille works, goes up and down according you put lights on or of.
I need for the vacuum system the remote control valve just for this function.






Here you have again the valve, but now you can see better, what s the question.
The location of the valve is front of the car over the vacuum reserve tank.

This valve is missing. If someone find it, I can pay current price. If you know, its not working please don t offer it. My contact person in USA will purchase it.
That where a great help for me to get it.
You can write directly me : kaaresoja@gmail.com

I mergeed your two posts together and moved the thread to the parts wanted section for better visibility.
I hope someone has the part you want that works.
Have you tried to disassemble the one you have to see if it can possibly be repaired? I suspect rubber sealing pieces have deteriorated.

Thank you! The lower pic is captured from Youtube, I don t have any valve. Of course, if someone have the part, I shall test it, its condition can so be what ever!

Seems I remember it's a 69-only part, or it might also fit 68 W34. I know it's different from the regular 1968 part.

If you find one, the remote control section can be disassembled, cleaned and lubricated with some rubber valve lubricant.
