HELP WITH VIN DECODING

I just picked up my 64 f100 and the more and more i look at it it doesnt look like a 64 so i found the vin on the door which looks like its been swaped and i found the vin on the frame and the 2 do not match so i need help decoding them
the last 6 digits are 570088 and 421590 i know what the first 5 mean
the reason why im concerned is because i want to do a crown vic ifs but need to make sure the frame lines up
