Take the headliner down and feel around up in there. I found a build sheet stuck in that gap on the drivers side. In great shape too.

Is it a Sno Fighter that came with a plow on it? Do they mean the mounting places on top of the plow frame for the parking lights? If you can post a copy of the build sheet.

Build Sheet
I just looked under my passenger seat and found the build sheet, thanks for the tip guys. Unfortunately the upper right corner of the paper is torn and missing. I didn't see it, but I can only get at the truck from the passenger side due to it being storage for winter. Would they have put one above the headliner also as somebody else mentioned or is there just one per truck?
It is extremely detailed, but how do you decode it? Some of it is obvious, but other codes are not. Any suggestions as to how to find out the info on it? Also somebody mentioned the build sheets ford currently mails are not as detailed? As I don't have one to look at how do they differ? Thanks for any help.

From what I understand it could be under the seat, headliner, or even under the flooring if you have the carpet or rubber floor. I dont think it went by year or anything, just were ever the person wanted to put it. If it even had one placed in it.
I found mine under the seat on my 75.

Build sheets are found in many different places. Or no place. The line workers put them wherever. Quite often they weren't put in the truck at all or several different ones were put in the same truck.
I bought a new '77 F250 and the build sheet was shoved in the frame between the frame rail and fuel tank.

It may take weeks, because Ford has none of this info any longer.
In the late 1980's, Ford was going to THROW AWAY all the data pertaining to 1967/79 Ford & L/M Passenger Cars; Ford Trucks, Bronco's and Econolines.
Kevin Marti, a Mustang 'nut' in Phoenix AZ found about about Ford's plan and got all of it.
So...since Ford has nothing any longer, they have to get the info from Marti (martiauto.com).
Marti has more data than Ford provides, like a copy of your trucks original window sticker, but there is a fee for this and other services.
This is known within the hobby as a Marti Report.
