Test? Charger hidden headlight motors

I want to test some 1966 67 Dodge Charger headlight motors before I sell them. I have been offered $20 sight UN seen for each, untested,but if I can say they work I may be able to get more. I'm not optimistic but I want to give it a shot. Any ideas on how to test them?

Don't know, but if you go here, there's some shop manuals to download............

and Google it, I remember seeing this posted. There's a forum, somewhere, dedicated to early Chargers

I did not know 66-67 had electric headlights. I know 68-69 were vacuum and 1970 up went electric

Yep, and it's quite a celebration when they work for the first time:

Should be able to apply 12v DC to the leads. There are 3, and I believe black is the common, so hook the negative to that. Then just hit each of the other 2 (red/purple) one at a time and the motor should turn each direction.
