1 very rusty 1275 bare block came with the parts that came from parts that were with the Midget.12C/DA/H25784 is on the tag.?? ??Alloy 1275 tag riveted to the block and about 5/8" thick oil pan flange.?? ??Also fuel pump area is not machined.What year is / was it??? ??All guesses welcome.The motor I am disassembling has these identifying marks:12V/587Z/L15266 on the tag.?? No riveted 1275 tag ( no , no sheared off rivet or rivet hole) block is about 1/2" at the oil pan flange.It has a fuel pump block off plate bolted to the block.Both blocks have "12G" over "1279" cast in raised letters / numbers on the very rear of the left hand side of the block.????Why am I asking??? ??After years of working in both shops and parts departments I know there are certain things that may or may not need a little more identification besides a resounding "all of those 1275's are the same, pick a year from your catalog".Thank you!ChuckSent from my LG Mobile

It is not a 1967 pre-smog 1275. All of those had a 12CC prefix on the tag
riveted to the block. The early smog models had 12CD prefixes.
