Larry;
The first thing that you need to do is determine what sort of clock it is.  
The early automotive electric clocks were just wind-up clocks that were wound 
electrically.  They would run and a set of points would close to actuate the 
electrtic wind mechanism which would open the points then the cycle would 
repeat. The usual problem with them was that the points would stick.  The 
newer clocks are mostly  electronic and I havent a clue what an individual 
might be able to do unless it is as simple as a connection from the terminal 
to the internal circuit.  Maybe you can find an operating one which can be 
cannibalised to fit into the origional houising.
