If you aren't restoring your car you could use a modern relay. The original had three contacts correct? One for 12volts to operate relay, one for the motor and one for the ground (maybe only two contacts if the relay was metal and the ground was the case to the firewall). Check the amperage requirement of the motor by checking the size of the fuse on the circuit the power windows are on (could be 15A) and then get a relay rated for that size load. They are available at most auto parts stores although many of the new ones are in black plastic housings and have the third contact. Same would apply to the power seat.

I screwed up... I meant the circuit breaker on the firewall, which was readily available at NAPA ( I was shocked ) that was identical to the one on the car. I got away cheap - about 4 bucks
