I have a book that shows some production numbers but it will include longboxes and does not differentiate between 6cyl and V8. A lot of info is scarce since Ford chucked out most of the records 66 and older. I love the Flaresides and yours looks to be lowered a bit which is a big improvement.

The gear & lightning bolt hood front emblem on this truck was only used for I-6's in 1965/66. V8's had a V8 emblem.

All 1961/64 I-6's and V8's have the gear & lightning bolt emblem.

4th digit of the VIN is the engine code.

1965 F100/350: B = 300 I-6; D = 352 2V; J = 240 I-6.

1966 F100/350: A = 240 I-6; B = 300 1-6; Y = 352 2V

Only sagging huh? I like the look of minimal clearance from the top of the tire to the bottom of the wheel well. What are the tire dimensions?
