I would like to replace the vacume headlight door actuators with electric actuators.  I am eliminating tha vacum switch, etc.   Does anyone know where I can get the right ones?

Both systems have their inherent problems.  Seems to me it would be more work to change it over than it would be to just fix the problem you have.

The electric units fail often, I have owned 68's for 27yrs and never seen one fail and
they are cheap and easy to fix if they do.

If you really want to go that route, consider installing the electric motor system from a late 80's LeBaron coupe/convertible.
They are much better than the earlier system.
