Canada VIN Decode

Hi All
First of all, I just want to say that this is a wonderful site and a great tool for us old Ford guys. I thought I knew a lot about old Fords until I started reading this forum. I am currently on page 130 out of 3600 pages. LOL I wish I would have had all this information available to me in the past.

I have owned two 77 f250 over the years and just recently my son found a one owner 74 f250 4x4 with only 97k on her. It is in great shape and all original no rust with 360, 4 speed,Holly four barrel, Elderbrock high rise and headers. I believe she is from Canada and (has an accent) so the VIN tools can't find her. The VIN # is F26YCT43514. Thanks in advance. Pictures to follow.

Prior to 1966, Ford/Mercury trucks only sold new in Canada used a different VIN than US trucks. 1966/80 US/Canadian trucks use the same 11 digit VIN

Beginning in 1981, VIN's contain 17 digits, some of the online VIN decoders don't "recognize" the older 11 digit VIN

mikeo0o0o0 decoded your VIN using the Ford truck parts catalog, which is faaar more reliable than any of the online VIN decoders.
