vin decode on van

anybody know what this vin number means. Its an older 11 digit code so its hard to get info on in. E21GBHD0721. Its from a 1980 ford club wagon. I need to know what the engine is. I know its supposed to be a 351. But i dont know if its a 351m or a windsor. thanks.<!--EndFragment-->

Looking at my 80-83 Ford shop manual, it confirms you have a Club Wagon (E21).
Your engine code G (4th digit) is a 351. Code W is a 351 also. I would think it safe to assume the W is the Windsor, yours being the 351-M.
Go to the engine forums...I'm sure someone can ID another way.

The vans all had windsors, the trucks all had 351M from 77 to 82.
