Please decode my VIN: 1970 Ford C600
No such thing as a C610. If you look closely at the first 3 digits of the VIN, it's C61 .. D = the 4th digit of the VIN is the engine code.
Plus, you asked this question in the wrong forum, this forum is for 1973/79, your C600 is a 1970. Please ask further questions in the LARGE TRUCK forum.

D = 330 2V Heavy Duty FT engine.
V = Kentucky Truck Assembly Plant.

111" Wheelbase.
JM: J = Rangoon Red / M = Wimbledon White
