IMA Newbie, HELP!

Just took delivery of my 61/62 unibody short bed with cathedral window last night. I need help. Is this a 61 or 62?
VIN: F10CR282***
WB: 104
Color: V
Model: F100
Trans: A
Axle: 11
MAXGVW: 5000
Cert Net HP: 135
RPM: 3800
DSO: (blank)

I know codes for classic Mustangs very well, but I do not know F100's. The grille appears to be from a 1962.

welcome aboard. there are no better looking trucks than the 61 to 63 ford unibody design. must be why i have so many LOL.

look on your tag in the gove box and post the model... should be a 66B for custom cab big window. a little note on the back window. dont break it as there are no replacments avalible at this time.

I have the fingers crossed that some one will repop it like the 57 to 60 ones showing up.

Is 104" right? sounds too small for a short uni wheelbase... shouldn't it be 114"?
