So what year is it?

Ford : F-100 - eBay (item 180615470940 end time Jan-28-11 11:46:32 PST)

Take a look at this truck, it's 4X4 with an F10 vin, on a 1978 Bronco frame. If the states look at the frame number for verification of VIN, wouldn't this be a 1978 Bronco?

its a '66. chances of anyone looking at the frame for identification are rare. im considering putting my '65 on a newer frame for an easy disc brake swap . not to worry.

unless you got a title for both frame and body its not worth a dime in some states

I Oregon the title goes with the frame, I have checked with the DMV here on a 47 Ford truck on a 78 frame and was titled to the 47 boby. It was a no go as far as DMV was concerned.

That's what I thought would happen, at least out in the northwest.

Before I even thought about buying such a vehicle I would ask if he had the title for the frame.
