The Bugeye (AN5L31998) can be converted to a electric pump but the original is 
a manual pump.

I had one laying around at one time, I will look through my parts bin and see 
if I can find it.  It was working when removed from the car but who knows now.

Although the motor on mine was fine the rubber impeller in the pump was
nothing but dust.  Autozone has a black square pump that fits fine and
works for about $9.  I put spade connectors on the new pump wires and
plugged it right in.  It would work on positive or negative ground
without any changes.  It is about 2 inches tall and 1 inch wide and
deep.  I also had to clean out the washer jets,  they were full of dirt
and wax.  Good luck.
