it has

how

| "Swivel clamp handle"?????

rust and

I think about the only folks that I can think of that would have
something close or convertible would be reid tool at
https://reidecom.reidtool.com/xephr/qbe/HOMEPAGE but don't hold your breath.
Might be time to whip up one yourself.
Although I just had the idea that if you were to get a rod end clevis
you might be able to put a handle on it.
