Question f-250 VIN decode please

I just got this truck from my boss, I am pretty sure it is a '72 but I found some decrepencies, and would like to know what the VIN decode for this truck is, thanks


Vin F2BPC84364


WB COLOR MODEL BODY TRANS AXLE
131 J F253 4 81 F 38

GVW CERTIFIED HP RPM DSO

the truck has a V-8 in it but from what I did find I am not sure if it original (according to what I found the original was a 6) thanks again. Ryan

F25 = F250 Pickup

B = Engine = 300 I-6

C = plant of build = Ontario Truck

84364 consecutive build number (There is Missing letter or if the C is right that would make it an 69.)


WB 131 = 131"

COLOR = J = Rangoon Red ?

MODEL = F253 = GVW Code = 7900 lb

BODY = 4 = Medium Beige Vinyl
81 = Conventional cab

TRANS = F = 4 spd Warner T-15

AXLE = 38 = Dana 60 - 3.73:1

GVW 6100lbs

CERTIFIED HP = 139 HP RPM

3600 at 3600 Rpm

DSO 44 = Twin Cities

oops sorry f25bpc84364, is what I have written down, I can't check it until tomorrow to confirm its correctness.

the engine in it is a V-8 but I am pretty sure that it was swapped since the carb has an ID tag D4DE, which as far as I know decodes to 74 falcon engine.

almost completely positive on the carb code, the tag on it was clean and easy to read.

the full carb ID tag was

Motorcraft
D4DE LA
A 3G 26


the warranty # would have put the assembly plant in the twin cities, instead of ont. right?

BTW thanks for the info
