Thanks!
 
     The link is great and has quite a bit of info. Snooping around, I see in 
the pics there that the gearboxes have a separate number actually 
stamped/punched into the metal much like the engine numbers. If memory serves 
me right, I only read the raised numbers which I see now are only the part 
numbers and not worth much. I saw the numbers a few weeks ago when I visited 
the bone yard. Had noted down the numbers as a super 'box is rare and now a 
friend wants to buy one.
 
     It is very much possible I have the wrong number as you suggest. The 'box 
was burried under mounds of greasy heavy stuff so the best I could do was not 
good enough. I have a spare 67 box with me and shall 'practice' finding and 
noting down the numbers in the comfort of home! The preceding alphabets would 
be a good clue to the ID of the 'box. 
 
Best regards,
