Welcome to FTE

F60 = F600 2WD

H = 370 2V or 4V (H was used for both).

V = Kentucky Truck Assembly Plant.

JD1563 = 1980.

The only thing I can tell you since the Warranty Plate is missing is that F600's of this vintage will have a GVW between 14,000-20,500 lbs.

Call Ford's 800 number, pass along your VIN and request a copy of your trucks original build sheet...there is no charge. Expect an answer in 2-4 weeks.
