Are these rare original Autolite shocks? Anyone? (pics)

I've been cleaning out the shop this weekend and putting random stuff on eBay. I came across these dirty old shocks that I took off a '67 convertible with an I6. I cleaned them up a bit and they have C6 part numbers on them...could they be originals? Are they trash or treasure? Any concours guys left around here?

The numbers on them are as follows:
FRONT
Autolite AUTO-FLEX XD "EXTRA HEAVY DUTY"
AX-129 1 10B9 C6PF-18077-FH U.S.A.
(the other one says 6B9 where the first says 10B9 -- date codes?)

REAR
Autolite AUTO-FLEX XD "EXTRA HEAVY DUTY"
AX-76 1 6B9 C6PF-18077-CT U.S.A.
(both are the same)

I spent quite some time Googling the crap out of them and came up with absolutely zip. I have never been defeated on Google like that before. :shrug:

The several Ford part number decoding pages I came up with didn't really help much, and several of them conflicted with each other.
