I expect that you checked the fuse first.
If you have to remove the motor, it's located behind the glove box.
Glove box removal will provide you more space to work.
You will see the motor having the size of a soup can attached on a mounting plate. Disconnect wiring, remove the screws and turn the motor assembly to remove. Note its position because you'll have to put it back the same way.
Once removed, test the motor with a 12 volts power source. If it runs watch the starting swing effect.
If the motor is good then test/replace the resistor block it's probably bad.
The vehicule being old, by the same time it's a good idea to check for any water leak that could drop on these two parts when mounted.
Hope it will help

An inoperative blower motor could be caused by the following:
* Blown fuse(s). The fuse should be replaced. There may be both a
LOW BLOWER and HIGH BLOWER fuse. Some models may also call it the HVAC
fuse. Even the RADIO fuse is used in some applications. Check them all.
If a fuse is blown there may be a short to ground in one of the power
supply circuits.
* Open Circuit. Check the circuit between the ignition switch and
the blower motor, and the blower motor ground circuit. Repair as
necessary.
* Faulty blower switch. A faulty blower switch should be replaced.
* Most heater blower circuits also include a blower motor relay
(look in the underdash convenience center), as well as a blow motor
resistor. These items should be checked especially if the blower runs in
one or two speeds, but not all speeds selected.
