Dear all,

Got recently this A65 that has been sitting for over 40 years.
A mark on the crankcase says "12-26-40". Shall I understand that this is the manufacturing date?
Also, the engine plate (see pictures) shows only A65. Is there any way to know the exact type of this engine (-1,-2,-3...,-8F, -12)?
Thanks!
Tom
