Help with De-coding my '79...
Would someone please tell me what this truck was/is?
It's a 1979 F-150 with the following door codes:
1) Color - H
2) Body - DT4
3) Trans - K
4) Axle - 13J (maybe a J? it's mashed)
5) D.S.O - 45 (Made in Canada)
6) W.B. - 133
7) VIN # F 15 G C E E 8633
8) Also, could anyone tell me what stall converter this should have?
9) Lastly, what rear axle ratio should it have?
Thanks a whole bunch, Guys!

Yes it is.
In 79 the C6 code was changed to K.
Previous to that, G was used to denote an Automatic Trans.
