OK Joe Here goes
F10 = F100
V = 239 cu in. V8
5 = Model Year 1955
K = Manufacturing Plant... Kansas City Plant
15074 Consecutive Unit No. beginning with 1000

Look at the truck rating data plate which should be found on the inside of your glove box door (that's where mine is anyway)

Under trans 3 is standard 3 speed

rear axle gives the ratio

Color code is the truck exterior color via codes Ask Earl, he has these codes

Hope this helps you

Good luck

Steve
