I need some help here from guys that might have experience decoding VIN and Data Plate. Here's what I have.
1963 1/2 Ford Galaxie Red , 2dr hardtop , fastback roof line.
Car now has a small block , 289 with auto transmission.
Engine/trans may have been swapped out years ago, current owner has no knowledge of what occurred before he owned it.

Data plate shows VIN number as 3G660213835.
Top line reads:
63B J 95 26G 32 4 4

Not sure what the original engine would have been ?

I have a text message with a picture of this data plate attached.
Thanks for any help.
