I'd like to help you, but sorry...cannot. If this 1957 F100 was sold new in the US, it would have an 11 digit VIN:
F10C7R12345
F10 = F100 / C = 292 2V / 7 = 1957 / R = San Jose CA Assembly Plant / 12345 = 1957 Numerical Sequence of Assembly.
If an I-6: J = 223 I-6 / F10 matches, nothing else does.
I have no way to decode anything other than US 11 (1948/80) & 17 (1981 to date) digit VIN's, 1965 Canadian only 15 digit VIN's (Sample: 4991014L-123456-A)

A bunch of us talked about getting a few together and some funds and going to Central America and bring back a bunch of rare cars and trucks. The few together was good. The Funds? Not so good.

Brazil is located South America, there aren't too many rare vehicles in Central America. Where you will find them is in Argentina, lots of luck getting them out of the country.
1975: After drolling over pics of Rollers, Grosser Mercedes & 540K's, Horch's, Maybach-Zeppelin's, Duesenbergs, and other rare cars parked on streets in Argentina, friend (used to live in Argentina) and I explored ways to export them.
Not a chance. That's why they're still there today, Argentine gov't won't allow them to leave the country.
