Eaton Fan Clutch for a Dec. 1959 built Car
Anyone ever seen or do you own a late 1959 model year car or pre-January 1960 built car with an Eaton fan clutch?
If so, what are the unique characteristics that separate it from the Eaton fan clutches built after January 1, 1960 (had date code hard stamped into one of the rear bosses).

Here's the only photo I have of a 1960 Eaton fan clutch - I'm not familiar with whatever the detail changes were from "early" to "late".

Only because whoever posted the photo said that's what it was, and it matches several poorer-quality photos I have that are also alleged to be 1960 clutches. I'm only familiar with the '63-up Eaton and Schwitzer clutches.
