Newby needs data plate decode! Please Help!
I've been lurking on the FTE Forums for the past few days, you guys are a wealth of information. I just signed up today to take full advantage of your collective knowledge. I hope I am posting this in the correct place!
Anyways, I just bought a 64 f100 and I've figured out the VIN information, but need help with some of the data plate info.
128= Wheel base I think?
BM= color i think? anyone know what color this is?
F100= pretty obvious
381 = no clue
F= not sure
12= could use some help on this one also
5,000= GVWR I believe
135= HP
@
3800= RPM
75= ???
Can anyone fill in the blanks? I'll add some pictures to my profile as soon as I figure this thing out. I've got some "before" pictures, and will post as I make progress. Just started the tear-down today!
