Anyone who has a spare Saginaw ought to keep it as a spare. No electric motor lasts forever. My Saginaw's brushes wore down to the nubs at about 15 years. Outboard motor power tilt brushes came to my Saginaw's rescue in spite of heavily worn armature. As a consequence of that wear, I wouldn't expect the replacements to last anywhere near as long. -- "For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him."
