On VIN plate, body code question

Does anyone know what the Body "3B4" decoded is? For a 1973 f250 4x4.

If you google "ford truck vin decoder" it will tell you everything about your truck.

The last digit 4 means you have a custom cab with the styleside bed. The first two digits 3b is your interior codes. I looked it up but its not listing those. Get a hold of numberdummy on here and maybe he could help

Thanks for the info on the "4" digit. Hopefully numberdummy will read this thread and know what the others are decoded (I don't have enough posts to PM yet).

Perfect!

Shows what whistle1516 said. I guess the middle letter "B" was just used as an internal Ford reference.
