Hi Murphy, 
Here's your data de-coded:
F10 ........ Conventional Cab, 1/2 ton
C ............ 292 V-8
0 ............ 1960 Model Year
R .............San Jose assembly Plant
31089 .... Sequential production number
Axle 02A .... 3.89 rear axle gear ratio, 3.92 Front axle ratio
Model F103 .... F-100 4 wheel Drive
W.B. 118 ........118" Wheelbase
Trans F ...........4 Speed manual transmission
Looks like you have a 1960 model year 4x4.
Can you post some pictures for us?
Also, what is your date code & color code?
I hope this helps.
