There used to be electric kits for 6v cars sold by JC Whitney and others but that was years ago. I installed one of those kits in a friends prewar sometime in the 70s or early 80s because his vacuum wipers didn't work. Vacuum parts even then were all but NA and long before the internet letting everyone know about wiperman. I might even have his original vacuum motor on a shelf somewhere. The kit was OK but IMO, don't think any of those Whitney kits were of the greatest quality.

I don't believe there is much of anything made for 6v cars anymore. That is the case for 6v air conditioner clutches and blower motors and AFAIK, the Newport 12v wiper is the only drop in kit made to fit older cars.
