Re: A couple things
one more question is what is that sensor or electrical thing that is sticking out of the side of one of the gear shifting things

Re: A couple things
I think that may be a syncronized 3-speed and the switch may be for a reverse light??not for sure though. Looks like you have a little work in front of you on the roof rust, good luck and stick with it.keep us posted.

Re: A couple things
Casting dates ,,,feb(B) 3 and feb(B) 27 and 1960(O) or 1970(O) ..The only reason I discovered that the 4 sp in my 63 was a 67 (and not a 57) was the presence of the reverse light electrical connector (introduced in 67).
So, I'd say ..late '70 or early '71. And yes its a saginaw as 'bama63 said. The production line marking could have indicated that it passed a particular inspection or possibly a code for what gearset to put in it. Hope that helps T
