Well, I just did a little research and found this site.
Ford Part Numbers

So based on that here is what I decode from C8AR-3580-A
C = 1960's
8 = 1968
A = Ford (Generic) / Galaxie
R = Manual Transmission
3580 = 3500-3764 = Steering gear
A = Single letter indicates specific application

That might get you closer. Of course NumberDummy will be able to tell you exactly what you have.
