I sent the following email to New Port Engineering. They make replacement wiper motors for various vehicles, include early Chrysler products. They primarily cater to the Hot Rodder set.

If others are interested in a modern 2 speed wiper motor with optional intermittent wipers, please email them. They may decide that there is enough interest and start development on a kit. Most of their kits are bolt-in using the OEM linkage and mounting points. Their web site is at:

I am not affiliated with this company in any way. I just noticed their ad in Street Rodder.

Oops, not quite. The interchange is '64-'66 A-body. The '63 motors and their mounting angles and configurations are totally different.
