I'd bet the transmission case on the side opposite the shift cover has T85 cast on it.
I'm confident you have a T85 three speed transmission with R11 overdrive. The little lever on the extension housing is an overdrive lockout lever, not a shift lever. The late T85 transmissions used T89 shift cover castings since they are interchangeable.
If the transmission uses a slip yoke it is a car transmission. If the transmission uses a fixed yoke on the output it is a 65-71 Ford pickup transmission.
