Vin# F61CRM86959

 

This is the Safety Standard Certification Label that is glued to the left B pillar (door post) below the striker plate.

All it has is the VIN which when decoded, tells you almost nothing.

For much more info, post a pic of the Warranty Plate, riveted to the left door face below the latch.

F61 = F600 2WD (gas) / C = 330 2V Medium Duty FT engine / R = San Jose CA Assembly Plant / M86959 = 1972.

 

Thank you. I will get more info and pictures when I can. I moved to Missouri and forgot about this truck. My grandfather purchased it off a lumber yard 15+ years ago. I am selling my property where its located in southern California and would like to get it running to bring the rest of my items from cali to my new house and fix it up in memory of my grandfather.

 

Got more pictures today any info would be great.

 

wheres the best place to find parts??

Nothing there?

 

That's a beautiful truck! I can't help you with decoding but that is a nice start to a project!

 

I got way more info then I had. Thank you everyone. I have wanted a dually for so long and for got I have owned this since 2006 when my grandfather passed. I moved out of california to missouri and am having my friends get it up and running so I can use it to transport the last of my possession cross country. This truck has been sitting since 2000-2002ish going to have my friends.
check the oil first. then do battery voltage test change all fluids and try to turn the crank by hand first to check if it has seized or not and pour fuel down the carb. then try and start her and see what happens.


Will keep everyone updated.
