I can supply the electrical diagram and a photo of the first loom that was made for testing but cannot tell you the final motor info. Almost all aftermarket motors made today are permanent magnet type and reverse direction by reversing polarity. Being as the motors are POLARITY SENSITIVE the wiring diagram connections will differ between 55 and 56.
.
We originally started with a Dorman 9 tooth pinion motor at roughly $35 from Amazon and was going to have a new 6 tooth pinion gear and adapter combo made to fit the motor output and Packard regulator. Riki came up with the idea of reusing the old motor shaft and pinion which would just require a much simpler adapter piece that could be turned on a lathe. He has tried different motors in the same price range to see if he could get one that would require minimal work to the motor to enable the old pinion shaft and new adaptor piece to attach. I believe he also changed the mounting plate or added some standoffs in order to be able to use the longer old pinion and shaft. He can supply the motor info and maybe a photo or two of the mounting and adapter if he has made a final motor decision. Also not sure if he decided if one motor can do both sides or if it needs a mirror.

Here is the wiring diagram and a photo of the originally selected motor and mounting plate.
