Help identifying this toploader

Hi all,

My ****** Wagon came with this Ford toploader (uninstalled) in the back of it, and I'm trying to track down what it is so I can accurately sell it. I did clean it up and open the top case. The gears seem good as far as I can tell. Someone mentioned it may have come from an Econoline van, but if someone could confirm or disprove, I'd be much obliged. Here are the specs:

*Three speeds (has the nine bolt top cover)
*Right side identification tab: HEF BP 026369
*Left side casting number: C5AR7008
*Left side date tab: 5F17
*Input casting number: RF C5AR 7050 B

Thanks in advance.

That's an interesting question, I sent a PM to one of our resident parts gurus who may be able to lend a hand.

Welcome to FTE by the way!

A '65 Econoline would make sense. The date code is June 17 1965, and the short tailshaft housing matches up to what you would expect from the Econoline that year, with the engine sitting between the front seats.

HEF BP shows as from behind a 240 in thisy here:

Give this man a Kewpie doll, because this is exactly what the Ford type 3.03 3 speed manual all syncromesh trans is from: 1965 E100 240 I-6.

Same trans was used in 1966/67 E100 240's, but the codes will be different.
