how to get a build sheet

I was wondering where I can go to obtain a build sheet for my 1968 ranger. I know some guys have said they have gotten one for free.......and free is always good! Also thinking about getting a Marti report, but if I can get the same information through Ford for any less thats the way I want to go. I am trying to obtain any or all the documentation I can about my truck, mainly just to have it for when I start showing it again. Doesnt hurt to ask around before I go jumping into something!

I'm still waiting on my build sheet, however for me getting the Marti
report was well worth it as I also ordered a replacement sticker for
the inside door jam

You'll be lucky if you get it within 4-6 weeks, as it all depends on how busy Marti is.

In the late 1980's, FoMoCo was planning to THROW AWAY all the specs/data for 1967/79 FoMoCo vehicles.

Kevin Marti, a "Mustang nut" in Phoenix AZ found out about the plan and got ALL of it!

While you can get a basic build sheet from FoMoCo for your 1967/79 vehicle (it's free), since FoMoCo has NONE of this info any longer, they have to get the info from Marti!

Marti (martiauto.com) can provide you with a copy of your vehicles specific window sticker, Warranty Plate, Certification Label, and a gazillion other things like how many vehicles were painted a specific color, how many had 390 engines and etc, but there is a fee for Marti's services, which escalates depending on how much info you want.

The info is known in the hobby as a Marti Report.

What all info can you get from fomoco? Just the build sheet or is there more info they can give? I think ill be getting the marti report for my 71 crew as I'd like as much info as possible but I don't think they say the specifics for crews as how many were built ect

1967/79: Marti has everything, FoMoCo has nothing. All you can get from FoMoCo is a copy of your vehicles original build sheet (it's free)...the info comes from Marti, that's why it takes 4-6-8-12 weeks to receive it.

If you want to know how many crew cabs were assembled, how many came with what specific engine/trans, how many were painted red, blue or whatever...Marti has these specs.

When you request info like this, it's known in the hobby as a Marti Report.

I just recently called Ford for a build sheet on my 78. They were very nice and helpful. I received my phone call today my information would be 4 to 6 weeks and getting to me.

I understand Marti has all the info and is much quicker, they also provide info Ford does not. But the build sheet from Ford is free.
