Dunno if it was sold new as a pickup or not. 1961/68: There is no code within the VIN or stamped on the Warranty plate that defines...what type (if any) "back of cab equipment" these trucks came with.

F35 = F350.

Y = 352 2V

C = Oakville, Ontario Canada Truck Assembly Plant.

846562 = 1966, assembled April 1966.

132" Wheelbase.

8 = Springtime Yellow.

F350, 8,000 lbs. GVWR

481: 4 = Medium Beige Crush Vinyl & Medium Beige Wicker Pattern Vinyl / 81 = 81A Standard Cab.

A = New Process 435 4 Speed Manual Transmission.

22 = Dana 70 Rear Axle / 4.88-1 / No Limited Slip / 7,400 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.

8,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

172 net HP @ 4,000 RPM

720849:

72 = San Jose (NorCal) Ford District Sales Office, where the original selling dealer ordered the truck from.

0849: Domestic Special Order number, truck ordered special by original purchaser, not "bought off the lot."

There are no specific to Crew Cab ONLY parts listed in the 1964/72 Ford Truck Parts Catalog, NONE! It's like they never existed.

AFAIK .. all 'factory' Crew Cabs were assembled in Oakville thru 1979.<!--?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com
