Most any Lucas wiper motor will fit, as long as you swap out the drive gear
for the one in your car. The only difference between wiper motors on most MGs,
Jaguars, Triupmhs, etc. is the length of the wiper stroke, which is determined
by the placement of the drive pin on the drive gear.

If your drive gear is still in good condition, just swap it, and use most any
of the others.

That will work for MOST of them, but there may well be some that have other
differences as well. I know that will work between MGB and TR6 wiper motors.
