Could someone please help me decode this VIN on my 1961 F100, (F10JR80485). I have also attached a few photos of the VIN, not the best pictures but hopefully they will do. Thanks in advance for your help.

 

I can't see your pictures clearly enough to make out anything specific even on my largest monitor - and the VIN you typed in isn't correct for a 1961 as the last 6 if it starts with an 8 would be 1966.

See if you can get a closer picture of the Warranty plate. It's got all the other good info and a picture usually prevents any typos.

You are right, I must of fat finger it. the correct VIN is F10JR18048, it also has 114 under W.B, F100 under model, A under Trans, 11 under axle, 05000 under MAX GVW LBS, 114 under CERT, 3600 under RPM, 9985 der DSO. I attach another picture, maybe it will help. Thanks for your help.
