Hi Paul--
I have never found anyone that can rebuild these motors. If there is a 
"fix," I would like to know about it. So far, I have had good luck finding 
used motors for my 1968 and two 1971's (same motor). A wide range of years 
and models use the same motor. I have taken at least one off a Charger, and 
a couple off mid-1970's Imperials.
