engine ZE-4515
Gloss green
operators inst. SE-704-60

What you have there is the military nomenclature for each servicin g arm, like the motor pool. It terlls you which pulications to use when working on the vehicle. You've listed the parts manual, operators manual and the maitenance manual. Look for the vin number that would start with "F10*******, it's about 10-11 character long. If you wanted the military manuals, I'd check Potrayal Press or the MVPA. They have a web site. I did military vehicle restos for 22 years and there's tons of manuals out there. Just look for the numbers you listed.

In the mid-50's, the VIN Barry mentioned was usually in the glove box and/or door column, plus it was usually stamped on the top of one of the frame rails between the front of the cab and the front axle. I don't know where the '60 stamping would be, but there are a bunch of 57-60 folks who can help you with that if you can't find it.

You may have to look on the top edge of the frame to see if there's a Ford Vin on it. Look on both sides from the shock mounts back to just under the cab. If not, unless you find the military manuals, there may be no way to trace. The service and order number you listed is also considered a batch number. One of the ord manuals you listed may have the batch numbers broken down.
