Local ad says this is a 5-speed for a 64-66. Anyone know what it actually is?

The more I look, the more confused I get.

 

[64-1/2 first.... 66 now]

Looks like a toploader 3-speed, 9 bolts on the top cover.

2 shift shafts coming out the side + speedometer gear on the left side = 3 speed Toploader.
Ask the seller for a close-up photo of the tag riveted to the right side and you can really nail it down.

I guess it must be the lack of a shifter that's throwing me.

Too many sellers go by what the other person said something is and others call reverse one of the "gears". A 4 speed refers to the forward gears likewise a 5 speed (which is usually 4 physically speeds plus an overdrive).

Thanks guys. The guy actually changed the ad after I told him. Wasn't so sure that was going to happen.
