Default Power supply for wheelchair motor?

I recently dumpster dove for a couple of 24 volt 400-600 (estimated)
Watt, 3000rpm motors with controller off a Ranger II (1999) wheel
chair. They each have a gear box that should be either 18:1 or 24:1.
Would these be good for converting to a variable speed drill press? I
need a power source as these ran off 2 12v car size batteries. I
haven't been able to determine the exact specs of the motors as the
manufacturer is not cooperating, and the motors have a minimal amount
of information. Any suggestions on obtaining a reasonably priced power
source? How many amps?
-Mike
