Numbers Matching Engine! Definitely did not strike gold with this, but it is very encouraging that it most likely has all of the original drivetrain. It took me a while to find this number because I thought it was on the front of the block. Apparently it's on a ledge on the front of the block.

New turn signals installed in the 63 Buick bumper! $20 for the set. OEM replacements are hard to find for a reasonable price. These will work fine until I can perhaps find some originals.
