1963 Unibody Vin Decode Help
Looking for help to decode the numbers on this 63 i just picked up..
The guy i bought it from told me that it was a numbers matching truck. So i wanted to see if this claim was correct.
Here is the door data plate info:
F10CK 39 3100
114 T F100 668 A12
5000 135 3800 75
Not sure where to look on the frame and motor to check the other numbers....so any help would be appreciated!
thanks!!

You also posted the VIN/codes in the 1961/66 F100/350 Registry thread, I decoded it there.

The fellow I bought it from said he had paid some company to verify that it was a "numbers matching truck".....So is that statement incorrect?...a big fat lie?
The numbers on the frame do not correspond to the door data tag??...other than the equipment that it is calling for..?
Thanks for any enlightenment!

Uh huh. What company could verify 'numbers matching' since there's no such thing?
And...FoMoCo THREW AWAY all the records that pertain to these trucks decades ago!
Now, if you had a Cobra, that would be numbers matching, cuz 'ol Shel stamped VIN's on multiple parts.
The numbers on the frame do not correspond to the Warranty Plate??...other than the equipment that it is calling for..?

VIN on Warranty Plate is referred to as the "Warranty Number." FoMoCo says it's not for title or registration purposes (it's too EZ to change)...but most people are unaware.
1963/79: Warranty Plate located on the left door face below the latch. People replaced damaged left doors with used doors.
99.9% of the time, they failed to install the original Warranty Plates on the replaced doors.
Since FoMoCo THREW AWAY all the records, there's no way to find out how these 1961/66 trucks were originally equipped.
