F10= F100 1/2-ton 2WD
Y= 360 cubic inch FE
R= San Jose, CA assembly plant
Consecutive Unit Number= C42742.... November 1967... that means it's a 68 model.

Decode your warranty plate here: Decoding Your 1968 Ford Truck VIN - FORDification.com

Hopefully the VIN posted above matches the warranty tag... lest the door has been changed and the plate was not transferred over.

Check the VIN stamped on the top of the right frame rail... basically directly below the battery. Same???
