Need help decoding this C750 ID plate...
Made sure to take a picture of the ID plate...
C76 = C750
F = 391 4V FT gas V8
V = Kentucky Truck Plant
H40767 = 1970 numerical series, January 1970 production
135 = 135 inch wheelbase
C = "Special white".
C760 = C750 gas, 27,500 lbs GVWR
118 = Possibly gray interior, standard tilt cab, cab and chassis
2 = Clark model 282V five speed direct transmission
HHN
HH = Eaton model 17221 Two Speed Rear Axle / 7.17 / 9.77 ratios / 18,500 lbs. Rear Axle Capacity.
N = Ford-Rockwell/Timken 9,000 lbs. Capacity Front Axle with Power Steering.
27500 = 27,500 lbs GVWR
199 3800 = 199 certified net HP @ 3800 RPM
870238
87 = Body company
0238 = Special Order number
Body company could have been Omaha Standard, the brand on the bed.
Dayton style wheels are a plus, no widowmakers and if they are not already, you can change the rims to tubeless if you want.
27,500 GVWR, cdl required unless you have a Ag or other exemption in your state.
Shifting those is an art.
Shifting the two speed is also--if you are not familiar, check out the Eaton videos:
