No engine code of 0 or O. It's probably either a C (330 2V Medium Duty) or a D (330 2V Heavy Duty). Both are FT engines.
K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.
D20522 = 1968, assembled March 1968.
174" Wheelbase.
L = Holly Green.
F617 = F600, 20,000 lbs. GVWR
4B81: 4B = Black all Vinyl / 81 = 81A Standard Cab.
A = New Process 435 4 Speed Manual Transmission.
F3 = Eaton model 15201 Two Speed Rear Axle / 6.33/8.81 / 15,000 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.
20,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.
164 net HP @ 3,800 RPM
562799:
56 = Davenport IA Ford District Sales Office, where the original selling dealer ordered the truck from.
2799 = Domestic Special Order number, truck special ordered by original purchaser, not "bought off the lot."

Thanks for the info on the truck. I do know its a medium duty 330, must have been reading the number letter. Im pretty sure it has been a grain body truck its whole life and had the bed put on in Peoria IL a long as the antique mudflaps are right. It still has ford dealership stickers on it for Heller Ford in Illinois too. Thanks again.
