Seems to me that the motors have not changed a whole lot from even the first stangs. I might grab a spare from a J/Y, ebay etc or just remove yours for a rebuild at a local electrical shop (the Ma and Pa type of place). You can use the top manually in the meantime..........

Random thoughts.

Good luck.
