DANA 60 codes - What/when was it born under?

Ok Fellas,
Who has their DANA 60 ID book handy?

(I went to DANA's web site, it only goes back to '78. I searched for a chart or such on FTE's transmission/differential/transcase forum, lots of info on FRONT DANA 60s, but didn't find any answers for this....so here I am)

I've got a full-floating DANA 60 under my '65 F250, however, based on some notes from the PO, the rearend MAY have come from a '67 F250/F350.

Here are the codes I took off it today:

-- The casting has the requisite ' 60 ' cast in to the lower RH corner of the case.

-- Cast into the upper RH corner of the case is: ' C-30255 '.

-- I believe I located the Born on Material (BOM) stamping on the RH axle tube. It reads: ' 5 12 7C1 '.

-- Lastly, is the tag at a rear cover bolt (which I'm not too confident to believe, for some odd reason) which reads, ' C7TA-BV 602311-1 4.10 '.

Can anyone help decipher what all these numbers tell us?

At least can we determine what year/model this rearend came out?

Thanks in Advance, Guys!
