Hi all Below is Tim's reply. I have forwarded on the Autolite #'s supplied by Paul Holmgren to help identify the starters. If anyone on the list has the #'s tagged/stamped ON the '59-'61 starter could they send them to me as I'm sure in my pile of starters I have one. I would then send it down to Tim, which would mean he'd have samples covering at least '56 w/TF thru '61.
