vin # decode?
I have been watching all the help that has been given to decode the vin plates, could the thread gods & gurus help with mine.
I thought that i bought a '69 F-250 4x4, but from what I have seen in the manufactures production #'s, I am not sure now.
Plate reads as follows
F26YCF82231
131 6 F260 3 81 A 24
06800 175 4000 16
Thanks for the help guys!

Glad to have confirmation on the axle ratio.
Hope I can return the favor sometime, This forum is one of the best I have seen. As I rebuild this truck I hope to help others.

Thanks for the reply...the truck has a stock appearing 4BBL intake manifold.
Also, is there any way to tell if the DANA 60 is a locking unit or not without pulling off the cover?
Thanks
