Vin# decoding

Would someone please help me decode my vin#? I went to the member page and printed the decoder, but I am confused. From what I found it looks like my truck was born in May of 1966, but with a 1965 Tranny and Rear axle. The vin inf is as follows.

F10YK860474

115M F100 B81 A A9

05000 172 4000 74


Thank you, You Guys are a big help.

Tim

Vin# decoding

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 07-Oct-02 AT 11:03 PM (EST)]F10YK860474 = F100 2WD 352 V8 Made in Kansas City.
115M F100 B81 A A9 115= wheelbase? F100=F100 A = 3 speed??

05000 172 4000 74 5000#GVW 172HP @ 4000 rpm 74= DSO Original destination, not sure where though.

I hope this helps a little. Jimmy

Remember that Ford sometimes used parts over a few years rather then recast all of their parts and update the year codes on them.
