Does anyone know of a reasonably priced 12 volt wiper motor that will work on a 1941 Ford 1/2 ton pickup? All of the ones I see indicate they will fit the 1941 car but not 1/2 ton pickup. I am going to assume this has something to do with the sallower dash on the pickup vs the passenger car.

Reasonably priced no. But expensive from Mac's: here it is.

Newport Engineering makes a kit but its pricey, like 400 bucks. https://newportwipers.com/ Another option is Mighty Mite wiper. Much cheaper. https://raingearwipers.com/mighty-wiper/

Maybe try Speedway? I got a 12v for 46 car. Good price and easy fit.

Roam your local Pick-N-Pull and get the rear wiper motor from a small foreign station wagon like a Subaru, etc. If they are narrow enough to fit inside the rear door of a wagon they will be narrow enough for your pickup. I suspect one will cost you $10-15. Also check with a company called Mighty Wiper.
