Is there a way to look up a 64 F100’s data if all I have is the VIN? I can’t find a data plate on the door area and the glove box has the remnants of a tag of paper on the inside. VIN is:

F10- F100 2WD
C- V8 292-2v 135hp@ 3800rpm
E- Mahwah NJ
493406- 64 model year in sequence

I was told it was a NC School Bus maintenance truck (it was SB Yellow at one point). It is a SWB and has a Custom Cab instrument cluster and Custom Cab door handles. Any help is welcome, I’m at the end of what I can think to research.

VIN: F10CE493406

F10-= F100 2WD

C = 292-2V does not decode to: 135hp @ 3800rpm

E = Mahwah NJ Assembly Plant.

493406 = 1964.

If the Warranty Plate is missing, you're out of luck. Ford THREW AWAY all the records for 1961/66 trucks decades ago.

It may be possible to reconstruct the missing Warranty Plate, but you'll have to do the research for the missing info.

1st line: Warranty Number (VIN): F10CE493406

2nd line: WB: / COLOR: / MODEL: / BODY: / TRANS: / AXLE:

3rd line: MAX GVW LBS: / CERT NET HP: 135 / RPM: 3800 / DSO:

Thank you for the info, I have my shop manual out and now have some additional research ideas. Won’t be able to find all info as the truck has been modified before I bought it. Gotta love a 55yo vehicle!
