IFD = FoMoCo USA - Ford Truck - Incomplete Vehicle.

X = Class 7 - 26,001-33,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

F70 = F700 (gas).

H = 370 2V or 4V.

3 = Check digit, FoMoCo use only.

B = 1981.

V = Kentucky Truck Assembly Plant.

J40974 = 1981 Numerical Sequence of Assembly, the trucks specific serial number.

No such VIN, look at it again.
F70 = F700 (gas).

D = 330 2V Heavy Duty FT Engine.

U = Louisville KY Assembly Plant.

B40303 = 1967, assembled June 1967.
