As some of you know, I acquired a very original and unmolested 71 F100. I noticed this factory tag still mounted under the ignition coil bracket bolt. Anyone know what these are for and what info they tell?

 

Paging @NumberDummy maybe he'd know

 

Engine Identification Tag:

302 / C = Engine Plant Code / 71 = Year / 10 = Change Level.

1 = Year of Production (1971) / D = Month (April) / K (unknown) / Engine Code Number 292 = 302 2V / J (unknown).

 

Thanks! Never seen one of these still attached.

 

I'd like to see pics of your 71 as I have an all original 71 f-100 with a 302 as well.

 

Sure man here she is:

 

What, ya steal that from the Smithsonian or somethin'?

 

Lol yeah thanks....about as close as one can get!

 

Nice, I won't share pics of mine out of embarrassment.

 

That is a great look truck! How many days out of the week do you spend, to keep it looking so good?
