F70 = F700

I = 302 4V "Lincoln" Y-block gas V8

U = Louisville Assembly Plant

432810 = 1963 numerical series, July 1963 production

174 = 174 inch wheelbase

V = Academy Blue

F704 = F700, 23,000 lbs GVWR, hydraulic brakes

81A = Conventional closed cab, Standard Cab

J = Clark model 250V five speed direct transmission

75D
75 = Eaton model 1614-15 OR 1618-19 single speed rear axle, 17,000 OR 16,000 lbs capacity, 7.17 ratio
D = 3,500 lb capacity, 4.55 ratio front axle--Both the MPC and shop manual describe code D this way. Typo on your warranty plate perhaps? The front axle should have identifying marks, possibly on the back side, passenger side of the axle.

23000 = 23,000 lbs GVWR

163 3600 = 163 Certified Net HP @ 3600 RPM

11 = Boston District Sales Office
No special order

2nd '63 in a two days.

Think long and hard about buying it. See if you can find a water pump for example.....

Engine:
LINCOLN Y

This post by @tripleframe tells more about those engines:
