Hey guys new to the site:
I have figured out most of my vin, but I have no Idea what the other numbers.
F25CD460471 1207 I know that "f25= f250, C= v8 292 cid 2 bc carb, D= Dallas" as far as the "460471 1207" I am lost.
M 5 0 07K 24 A M is " corinthian white" , but don't under stand the '5 0 07k 24 A".
10 16 63 62002 0 3rd line is just a mystery "10 16 63 62002 0"
Can any one help fill in the gaps???? I will post a picture of the card.
This small plastic card was in my Grandpa's wallet I scanned it to enlarge it

Any decoding I have done has been of the Warranty Plate - a metal plate attached to the truck.
That is a great piece of documentation you have there for your truck and it tells some info. The 460471 is the consecutive number of your truck and indicates it was built in September of 1963 - a 1964 year truck - Your piece of paper says 10/16/63 on the third row which is likely the day it was purchased by the new owner. The paper ties the truck to a person. The Warranty Plate is just about how the truck was equipped from the factory - no correlation to a person - that's what we use to decode typically.
The 24 and A are the rear axle and transmission most likely, but they are probably also on the Warranty Plate. Take a picture of the Warranty Plate and post in and I can decode it for you - or anybody else.
