To close out this thread, the dual front Dayton model 3LCH7 motors are readily available at Grainger, Amazon and a number of other sites as well. As Tony suggested, Grainger will take the old motors for recycling - they offer no monetary value. All of these sites also sell replacement brush sets for Dayton motors but none that are compatible with this model. Looking at how the brushes are mounted in the motor, they are in brass housings not intended to be opened and are fastened with tabs to a non-conductive plate that is riveted in place, so not intended to be replaced either. So, these motors are essentially designed as inexpensive throw-aways and not intended to be refurbished.
