Highboy serial Numer

I have the serial number of my highboy chassis now i don't know where i can go to find out the info. I've searched online and couldn't find anything. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction or if someone has access to this kind of info could help me out, The serial number is F26E07589. Thanks in advance

That website is incorrect. I entered my VIN and it said my truck was a '76 too. When in fact I know the truck is a '67.

I just happened to have my insurance card handy and typed in the VIN. I already knew my truck was a 67. Im sure of it as I am the 2nd owner. I think that I have a chart home somewhere that gives the breakdown for all older Ford Truck VIN codes. I will look for it and get back to you later.

Ok thank you again the VIN# is F26 VEC7589, but the V might be a Y. The number is really scrathed off.

F26=F250 4X4
The engine code has to be a Y=352 2V Carb in 67 and 360 2V carb in 68-72
E=Asembly Plant in Mahwah, NJ
C7589 is the serial number or production code.
