Ford VIIN # ??
Can someone ID my friend's truck for me? It's a 1966 F250 but for some reason he was told by the original owner that it's a one-ton. He also needs the engine size, and so far everything appears original. The books I used for reference are contradicting each other. The number is F25YR02854. Thanx

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 08-Apr-01 AT 07:36 PM (EST)[/font][p]Rocky, F25=F250,Y=352cid 6cyl,R=San Jose,CA.Rocky did you copy the vin# correctly,there should be six digits after the YR wich identifies the consecutive unit number,you only have five. Also if you look on the rating plate there are codes for the wheel base,color,model,body,trans,and axle if you can get them I could tell you more about the truck. Hope this helps.

Rocky, I have a decoder link on my FTE site, it says
F25 = F250 2wd
Y = 352 V8 2 barrel
R = San Jose plant
02854 = consecutive unit
hope this helps
