Paint code

Can someone give me the paint code color for my truck?

Here is the door tag

WB Color Model Body Trans Axle
114 V F100 81B A 12


GVW Cert Net HP RPM DSO
5000 135 3800 36

I need to know what the color, axle ratio, and DSO mean.

Thanks,
Jimmy

WB Color Model Body Trans Axle
114 V F100 81B A 12

WB = 114"
Color V = Academy Blue, 60 - 64
81B = Conventional Closed Cab
A = Ford 3 speed Transmission
12 = Ford 9" rear 3.89 ratio 3,300 CAP


GVW Cert Net HP RPM DSO
5000 135 3800 36

Max GVW = 5000 lbs
Cert Net HP = 135 hp@3800 RPMs (rated HP)
DSO = District Service Office = Louisville

All based on the assumption it is your 63 listed in your footer information.

Yeah, it came straight from the door tag, and it is a 3 owner truck, my father in-law bought it from the original owner years ago.

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 11-Aug-02 AT 03:27 PM (EST)]Oh, and thanks for the info. I was curious, Mine is a Custom Cab, It has all of the emblems, the chrome on the gauges, 2-tone interior, bright metal grill, windshield reveal molding, but it has a black steering wheel with the 1/2 horn ring to the bottom. I read that they had a white steering wheel. Mine seems original and I don't think that the old farmer that originally bought it changed the wheel. Any Ideas?
