60s f600 vin questions!

I have recently acquired an old Ford truck. I belive it is an F600. Not sure about the year. I do not have a title for the truck. Attached is a pic of the plate in the glove box. Any info would be helpful!

Word of advice: before you do anything to it, GET A TITLE.
Depending on your state, titles can be (somewhat) easy to get, on to impossible.
Also, depending on state, holding a vehicle without title can put you into legal trouble.
