That number isn't going to help. That's probably a part number. You need the serial number. You should find it on a metal tag right where the motor tilts on the clamp brackets. Look right under where the steering system attaches to the arm. Here is a list of model years and beginning serial numbers...<br /><br />1963-1518384<br />1964-1665002<br />1965-1755459<br />1968-2318580<br />1969-2484633

If it is electronic ignition and if the wrap around is black with red stripes than it is either a 1969 or 1970.<br /><br />sandyk
