F10 = F100

J = 223 1V

9 = 1959

D = Dallas Texas Assembly Plant

17833 = 1959

110 = 110 Inch Wheelbase

E = Colonial White

F10J = Model Code = There's no J listed in the parts catalog, F10-0 or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are the only codes.

21A = This is the build date, not the transmission code = January 21, 1959

01 = Ford 9 Inch / 3.70-1

Check the codes for Model and Trans (J is not the trans code, either). What you listed is in-correct.

SECOND LINE ON VIN PLATE READS: W.B; COLOR; MODEL; DATE; TRANS; AXLE
