Buying a panhead, can anyone weigh in on these numbers?

I'm looking at buying a pan to build with my pops, got burned by numbers on an ironhead so I'm being very cautious this time around. This is the picture the seller sent me I know it's small but does it look legit?

Thanks!

I've been looking at so many sources of info about numbers the last few days my eyes are starting to blur. Always good to have a second opinion.

According to the "What Fits What" book, it looks legit.

Is this a set of CO. cases with title?

No it's out of Nevada. My dad's a hermit way out in the desert.

Looks like a deal to me. I would like to have that chance.

Gut feeling that they're right. Look a lot like my 51 numbers.

From that small pic, those numbers look alright. What are the belly numbers? A bigger picture would be better.

Here's a good site to compare numbers, etc:

I didn't think pure evil could take solid form!

I don't see anything wrong with 58FL6666. It's a legit number, the stamps are the correct size/shape for a 58 model. The number boss doesn't look like it's been fussed with. Somebody had to get that number. By the way 58FL1234 is a legit number too.

i read somewhere that a fire in the factory in the late 50's lead to some numbers being stamped by hand , resulting in the uneven appearence.

Numbers were stamped by hand long before the 50's, it had nothing to do with a fire at the factory.
