Hhhmmmm I'm wondering?

Hey fellas, besides the obvious warranty plate which is fastened to the driver door which other identifying factor is there to determine if I have a 64 f100 or f250?? I'm starting to think the doors have been swapped.

Easy on that, look at the wheels, a 100 has 5 lugnuts, a 250 has 8

What if 3 out of 8 "LUGNUTS" on each wheel have fallen off, but the wheel studs are still there is it a 100 or a 250?

What if the PO has done a brake swap and gone to the 5 lug set up? the other way is to count the leaves on the rear springs.. then chat with numbersdummy, he can tell you the exact count.. Dave is correct though the VIn should be stamped on the top of the right side frame rail! it make take some scrubbing to fin it though!

Thank You Bill for nailing that down I knew that you would...... My 64 F250 had 13 rear leaves, but it was apparent that the PO did an add on to the stacks.... I removed 2 on either side, added air shocks, and it rides much better...

Vin# on the title would start with F10 for a F100 and F25 for a F250, for 2wd trucks.
