Correct.
And don't put in the quotes (") at the beginning & end.

Unfortunately, Ford doesn't seem to be able to find records for my 81 F350 or 86 Tempo.

Yea, forgot to mention that; only reason I used quotes was to stop the forum software from turning into a link.

It didn't find a sticker for my F100 (not surprising) and it didn't find one for my 97 F150 ether which, I was really hoping to get. My guess is it's for vehicles sold within the past 10 years... But it doesn't hurt to try.

Build Sheet

I don't have the link, but I just sent an email through the Ford website to customer service--it breaks it down to different topics/departments. Sorry, I don't remember which department, but it was pretty easy to figure out. I got an email from a real person acknowledging receipt of the request and I got the letter in about 6 weeks.

Also, FYI they said my 1986 was too old to get the window sticker reprinted.

I requested mine last March for my 1981 F100. I got the phone call back and they e-
mailed me a conformation number and said it would be here in 6-8 weeks. I have still
not received it and and have not heard anything more from them. Has anyone else had this happened?

Just got a letter from Ford. Yup, it's the build sheet I requested. Will get it scanned and uploaded shortly.
They misspelled my name, though.....

Here's my scanned copy of the build sheet. Last name has been misspelled.
A couple surprises here: 1 Truck had a factory chrome rear step bumper. 2 I see a generic listing for "White tape stripe". 3 No mention of which Explorer package (A,B or C).
I guess they've gotten a bit vague on some of their info lately. No mention of what wheels/wheel covers were installed either...

By the time I bought the truck, the chrome rear step bumper was gone, replaced with an aftermarket painted step bumper, which had been on it for quite some time.
I just love how they called it a "rear step and bumper"......
As expected, no mention of A/C. I knew it was dealer installed from the very beginning. 2 seperate blower motors along with seperate heater & A/C boxes were a dead giveaway.

And now, for the moment we've been waiting for:

I agree they were very vague, I didn't really find out much more then I knew prior to having the document. Still cool, but small stuff like what amp alternator etc. Would be nice.

If the altenator is not mentioned in the build sheet, it's the standard 40 amp one, or a higher amp one is included within another option package. (Dual Battery etc...)

None of the standard features are included with the build sheet option section.
