78 Courier
I recently bought a 1978 Ford Courier and have been trying to find a VIN decoder for it, it is an 11 digit VIN, Ford has told me they don't know it try Mazda, and Mazda has told me try Ford. So anyone know how to break it down?

I have the Courier parts catalog, so post the VIN here.

Not a whole lot to break down on those, it's either a 1.8 or 2.3 (1.8 has aluminum valve cover and 2.3 has steel), and four or five speed manual or automatic. The rear axle ratio should be on a tag on the passenger side inner fender, right by the vin tag. Options were 3.3x, 3.64 and 4.10. 3.64 is most common.
