Rear end ID

I had looked up spicer before, but this does not look like any of the ones they had pictured, I could be wrong. The fill plug is on the drivers side next to the driveshaft, not on the cover if that helps. It also looked similar to a 7.5" rear but it is much bigger then that. Guy told me it had a 9" in it, after hacking the back end off it definitely was not. If I can't get $75 for it it will go with the rest of my scrap metal. Trailers not full of scrap metal until the bumpers draggin'.

Axle decoder ring says 8 1/2 or 8 3/4 inch ring gear, 28 spline axles, none listed with limited slip, ratios 2.47, 2.75, 2.80, 3.07, 3.10 & 3.25.
'67 to '78, Ford, Mercury, last used in the Grandad and Moan-arc.
Must have been ok, as there are no "stories" or urban legends about how these were all awful and had to be replaced.
Good pics--where did you find that car, in the tide flats somewhere?

upon further investigation it seems to be the formentioned 8.5 inch rear end and 3.07 ratio. It seems not many parts are available for this and does not seem to be much in demand, guess it's going in for scrap as I will have a hard time selling it. Thanks again for the info guys, always useful.
