[FC] Two-speed wiper parts wanted

[David Ziegler, III]

I'm speaking of the attachment stud on the motor itself that the arms to the 
transmission attach to. I have a 1963 Rampside that I changed to 2 speed 
wipers and had to spend at least an hour at the Corvair Ranch to find  the 
correct motor to fit my attachment arms. Maybe there was a change after 
1961?
