B = 300 ci Six, 1V (or Cummins 588 ci Six, V6E-195, which seems unlikely)
U = Louisville plant
A picture of the warranty plate is a lot more helpful than the bare VIN.

Welcome to FTE!
C60BUB16825
C60 = C600 gas (Diesels use a different series number--D60 or D61 for C series in this era)
B = 300 1V six cylinder gas engine
U = Louisville Assembly Plant
B16825 = 1967 numerical series, April 1967 production
153 = 153 inch wheelbase
No color code. This is a special order truck and color could be part of that.
C600 = C600 gas, 20,000 lbs GVWR
691: This combination is not shown in the shop manual. "91" is the catalog number for tilt cabs. Could be a typo for the warranty plate, could be incomplete info in the shop manual.
A = New Process model 435 four speed transmission
62 = Rockwell model F-106 single speed rear axle, 15,000 lbs capacity, 6.20 ratio
No front axle code. From '64 - '69 only optional axles were listed. You probably have a Ford 5,000 lb axle without power steering. There are numbers on the axle which will id it if need be.
20000 = 20,000 lbs GVWR
150 3600 = 150 certified net HP @ 3600 RPM
614394
61 = Dallas District Sales Office
4394 = Special Order Number
Beware widowmaker wheels.....
