Convertible Top Motor

I am looking for a convertible top motor for a 1975 Oldsmobile 88. Any information is appreciated.

Thanks,
Phil

I just talked to a fellow who works on lots of sixties and seventies cars. He grabs the motors out of the eighties chrysler converts in the wrecking yards. Says they connect right up and work great, and they're pretty cheap, considering. Usually pays about $60 in Canada, I believe. Might be worth a try.

Don't know if you found a motor, but I have one that came out of a 75 Chev Caprice Classic conv. It was working fine when I took it out. Turned out to be the relay was bad. I also have a new set of cables that that are connected to the motor. If you're interested, let me know. Thanks.
