Thanks ND! The decoder I was looking at did not show that color available for that year. That is the color, for I see that color around chipped areas. Wish whomever painted it would not have.lol. Love that color. And wish I had the 292 with the 4 speed as well.....
Thanks again ND.

It's a 1965 F500, but there's no way to know what type of "back of cab equipment" it came with, as all 500 and larger series trucks were sold as a Cab & Chassis.

F50 = F500 (gas).

A = 330 2V Medium Duty FT engine.

E = Mahwah NJ Assembly Plant.

639034 = 1965.

132" Wheelbase.

M = Wimbledon White.

F505 = F500 (gas), 20000 lbs. GVWR

481: 4 = Light Beige Crush Vinyl & Light Beige Wicker Pattern Vinyl / 81 = 81A Standard Cab.

N = New Process 435 4 Speed Manual Transmission.

62 = Timken model F106 Single Speed Rear Axle / 6.20-1 / 15,000 lbs. Axle Capacity.

20,000 lbs. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating.

160 net HP @ 3,800 RPM

13 = NYC Ford District Sales Office, where the original selling dealer ordered the truck from.

Please ask further questions in the LARGE TRUCK forum, most members of this forum have pickups.
