Post Vin numbers

I recently bought a "69" F-100. But I need to know the actual VIN # decoding to make sure. The # is F10ADB55214. There are other #'s beside it on the original owners card (the original plastic embossed card). Any info will help.

Sorry Steve, but you're way out on that decode. It looks more like a 68 sequence number. I'll have to check my books to be sure or maybe someone else will be quicker with the right info...

Yours sounds like borderline between 67 and 68 production. Does the vent window have a straight bar latch or the upright handle?

It has an 'L' shaped latch on the wing window.

Your truck is a 67. Those vent windows are 67 only as they changed for the 68-72's. I don't know about new ones but you can check the FTE store and classifieds.
