Welcome to FTE! I'll give you your own thread for this truck so you can use it for follow up questions etc.

F60 = F600 gas, 4x2

C = 330 2V MD FT gas V8 (uses FE crank, waterpump, distributor and oil pump drive plus other differences from HD engines)

K = Kansas City Assembly Plant

C93415 = 1968 numerical series, February 1968 production

174 = 174 inch wheelbase

U = Medium Green

F600 = F600 gas, 4x2, 19,500 lbs GVWR

481
4 = Charcoal Black Crush Vinyl & Charcoal Black Ladder Pattern Vinyl
81 = 81A Standard Cab

A = New Process model 435 four speed transmission

F3 = Eaton model 15201 two speed rear axle, 15,000 lbs capacity, 6.33 / 8.81 ratios
No front axle code, so a standard axle for that year. No power steering, 4,500 to 5,000 lbs capacity

19500 = 19,500 lbs GVWR

164 3800 = 164 certified net HP @ 3800 RPM

64 = New Orleans District Sales Office

No special order number so bought out of dealer inventory.

Check your wheels, widowmakers were on most of these.
