Vin Decoder

Does anyone have a source for a VIN Decoder? I have been reading this thread
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/4...n-cut-off.html
I will continue to but it is quite long and there does not appear to be a place where the collected data is presented.

Here are my plates and stamps

It is hard to read but I think the fire walls says:
7 KC 2C 84

Based on the thread I referenced I think that it means:
7 - Meadow Green (although I have found no evidence of this
KC - Kansas City
2C - Possible built March 2
84 - Possibly 84th off the line

There are some mistakes on the '51 - '52 part of that Blue Oval guide, mostly the rating plate location and engine code for 239 flat V8 (was still R, not E); the E was for the 337 big flathead. But otherwise it works.
