Ford.com has a 17 digit vin decoder, but it only works for 1982 and up. A bit silly to exclude the 1981, (the first year of the 17 digit vin), and I did complain.

My VIN Number For 1981 Ford F-100
Hi, My VIN is 1FTDF10FXBNB02342. I found the Ford.com site earlier but like you say it starts with 1982 which is really crazy since the 17 digit VIN was started in 1981. Thanks for your help.

Howdy, well here is what the vin decodes out to.
1FT = Ford Truck USA. Complete Vehicle
D = GVWR and Hydraulic Brake system class. 5,001 to 6,000 pounds.
F10 = F-Series F-100 4x2 Regular Cab.
F = 5.0 L - 302 cid V8 - Gas - Manufacture FORD.
X = Check Digit
B = Year Model - 1981
N = Plant of manufacture - Norfork
B02342 = Production Sequence Number. The 102,342 made in the 1981 model year.
Hope this helps you out.

I can decode your vin for you using my 1981 light truck service spec manual if you want. You can either post your vin, or PM me and I'll get it done for you if you want. if you include all the codes off of the saftey certification level I can decode those too. Paint color, seat, body interior color, axle codes, trans codes etc...
