I seem to have misplaced my info book. Search the threads for VIN decoding, I know that the answers are out there.

It was either 11, ll or II.
Also, how could it have been bright red and blue?
When I got it (last September and still is) it is Carolina blue and dark blue down the side and a blue in between these two for the top.

Good call!
I wondered about that myself.
It is possible they changed the code K to Dark blue in 79.
In 78 K was Bright RED.
In most cases the colour code carries over until they skip a year.

Hmmm....to get all the info on your truck, I advise getting a build sheet from FORD - they are free and give all the info you need.
There is a posting on them in this forum....
