welcome to FTE.
that is not the VIN number
a 63 will only have an 11 digit VIN.
there should be a warranty data plate on the driver side door.

Welcome to FTE

Your Econoline was sold new in Canada, because this is a Canadian only VIN

1961/64's have VIN's like the above, 1965's have the codes reversed (5921190L-128071A), 1966/68's sold new in Canada have the same 11 digit VIN as US Econolines.

128071 = Numerical Sequence of Assembly.

A = 3,601-5,600 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

5 = 6 Cylinder Engine.

92 = E100 Van.

11 = 100 Series - refers to both Ford & Mercury Econolines.

90 = 90" Wheelbase.

L = Left Hand Drive.
