Welcome to FTE!
F61 = F600 gas 4x2
B = 300 1V inline six
R = San Jose Assembly Plant
A46419 = 1967 series number, November 1966 production
If you have the warranty tag on the door there's more info there.

Thank you, the main thing I was checking is the engine size

That's a bummer. I would not have bid on the truck if I had known. Looked like one piece wheels to me.
Did not plan on spending $4000 on wheels and tires.
I thought I'd have maybe $2500 total into the truck and be able to drive and enjoy it.

Lock ring 20s used to be like sand at the beach. @truckdog62563 might be by with some suggestions.

Without seeing pictures of the truck we can’t know whether it has widow maker 20s or tubeless 22.5s. Widow maker RH-5° rims were still the predominant tube type wheel in 1967, but tubeless 22.5” rims were well establish and being accepted by the buying public by then. So the first thing is to know tire size on the truck. Anything 22.5” you are golden, as in home free. Anything 20” you need to figure out what rims you have. Do a Google search or forum search for “Firestone RH-5°“ to see what you have. If you have them you are not alone having thought that you bought safe one piece wheels. Many have been fooled.
Tubeless 22.5s and other Goodyear types of 20” wheels used to be easy to find in yards. No longer. The best source we’ve found is military surplus yards. The F-600 bolt pattern in 1967 was the standard stud piloted 6 x 8.75” circle. Be happy you’re not dealing with a 1963/64 because they were commonly hub piloted and truly NLA. Stu
