Welcome to FTE!
F60 = F600 gas 4x2
C = 330 2V MD FT gas V8 (Uses 352 crank with small diameter nose, FE distributor drive)
C = Ontario Truck Assembly Plant
892257 = 1966 Series Number
156 = 156 inch wheelbase
M = White
F600 = F600 17,000lbs GVWR
481 = I don't have all the info on this code for upholstery, seat type etc. Seems to indicate Standard Cab
A = New Process model 435 four speed transmission. (This code also shows for a 5 speed, but that trans looks like it's for larger trucks, F800+)
F7 = Eaton model 13802 Two Speed Rear Axle / 5.83/8.11 / 15,000 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity
No front axle code. (Info per the MPC and Numberdummy: From '64 to '69 only optional front axles were listed. Starting in '70 all axles are listed. Thus in '64/'69 it's the standard axle, most likely to be a Ford 5,000lb capacity axle)
17000 = 17,000lbs GVWR
164 3800 = 164 Certified Net HP @ 3800 RPM
24 = Jacksonville District Code
If something doesn't match up, let me know.
Are you familiar with 2 speed axles?
