Unknown Exhaust Manifold? It has these numbers cast in. 2H7 75DA9431 AA . Can anyone identify this part for me?

FORD of AUSTRALIA | 302C - 351C LH Exhaust Manifold

2H7 - Date Code

75DA 9431 AA - Engineering ID PN

Your P&A Number System is similar to ours (US) other than the PN PREFIX.


EDIT -

Let me qualify that last statement.

The ENGINEERING PN PREFIX 75DA is unique. But I have also seen that format on SERVICE PN's from FORD of AUSTRALIA. 351C cyl heads from AU were popular some years ago and I remember the sequence. I think I have also seen them on much later PN's as FORD changed it's PN SYSTEM to a WORLDWIDE SYSTEM.

After adding the above photo of this Right Hand Drive 42 Ford Woody that resides in Australia, I noticed that the photo was reversed, and appeared as a Left Hand Drive model. With help from friends who "flipped" this photo for me, I can now Post it as Right Hand Drive.

Trusting people to move your car can have bad results. This happened to a friend of mine when he arranged for his "new" 1961 Ford Starliner to be moved north from Victoria. It was sent on an open car transporter. During the trip, it appears that someone opened the hood en-route to the new owner's home, and didn't close it properly. Once the Transporter reached the open road speed, the hood flew up and completely folded back resulting in a smashed windshield and buckled hood. As true 1961 Fords were never sold in Australia in any body style, finding replacement parts is difficult. He did manage to locate a hood off a 62 Ford, but the windshield is another thing altogether, as these windshields are unique to the 1960 and 1961 Ford Starliners, and the short lived 1960 Edsel hardtop. They are totally different from the windshields used on all other 1961 Fords.
