A condenser will have only two terminals. If you're in the US, the green is a chassis ground, and will attach to the green wire from your power cord. I would expect the motor to have a white wire as well, and if necessary to use a capacitor(condenser) usually there will be two brown wires. Take a picture of the data plate from the motor, and I'll be able to tell you how to connect it.

i should mention that hvac companies regularly throw away fans that work or need minor repair. usually these things put off too much wind for our needs but there are ways around it.
