VIN doesn't give you much. Do you still have the warranty plate with VIN and other info on the driver door?

F50 = F500

A = 240 1V six in-line gas engine

C = Ontario Truck Plant

F16405 = 1969 numerical series, May 1969 production

That doesn’t look right
last year for the 240 was 67, should be a 300
