Some of the Donald Healey Motor co. built cars had two speed Lucas wiper motors 
that look like they were a direct replacement. I assume that the BMC 
Competition Dept. built rally cars also had them. Therefore someone with a 
period Lucas book may be able to provide the car:Lucas numbers.The switch also 
needs to be appropiate ( something like 5 or 7 terminals )
