VIN Decoder on 2 ton dump truck
Hello everyone I am trying to get some information on my dump truck so I can start to fix it up. It currently has a short. Before I can fix it up I need to identify the VIN number. I was told it is a 67, but I want to be sure so I can order the correct parts for it. The VIN is F61CK807956, I would like to decode the VIN to determine the engine size, where it was made, etc. I was doing some research and noticed that on the F-300's the Diesel engine has the oil bath air filter, is this the same for the gas engine? I only ask because my dump truck has the oil bath air filter and it is gas, it also gets vapor lock and I have to unplug the battery every time I turn off the key. I would also like some information on the dump procedure, is anybody familiar with replacing some parts? The PTO is leaking and the linkage near the transmission is sticking.
Thank you,
Mike

I was told it is a 67, (incorrect!) but I want to be sure so I can order the correct parts for it.
VIN: F61CK807956

VIN: F61CK807956
F61 = F600.
C = 330 2V Medium Duty FT engine.
K = Kansas City MO Assembly Plant.
807956 = 1966 .. assembled January 1966.
1961/66: The last 6 digits of the VIN are 6 numbers. 1967/77: The last 6 digits of the VIN begin with a letter followed by 5 numbers.
For additional info, post all the codes stamped on the Warranty Plate, riveted to the left door face below the latch.
btw: 1961/66 looks totally different than 1967/72.
