They sound like Ford part numbers. Could be a Top-Loader.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0 |

Toploader is obvious. It is a big, ugly looking POS with a removable top cover. Pictures here: http://www.classictiger....ips/toplodr/topldr.html

I'd just sell the Toploader conversion and get a Muncie. The crossmember that holds the front of the front seats is normally butchered when one of those ugly mother boxes is put in, and it cannot do anything but weaken the floor. You are better off with the HT as the rear engine mount is supported by the front subframe, whereas on a HK the gearbox crossmember bolts to the one that gets hacked out too. If it was me I'd replace the crossmember (time consuming but not that hard), and get a muncie conversion, but it'll cost you a bit over the sale price of the toploader conversion. |

I doubt it, it should pass a blue slip no dramas. The 350 was standard fitment to a HT. The only things that may stop you are un-engineered modifications like a floor crossmember being hacked out to fit another box. |

I haven't seen it to comment. If the car hasn't been altered and you are just regoing it with a 350 I wouldn't think so. Talk to your local blue-slip person, they'll be your best guide. |
