Does anybody know a good source for VIN number decoding? Or maybe someone would know about mine ...
Serial - F10J9D17833
W.B. - 110
Color - E
Date - F10J
Trans - 21A
Axle - 01
F10 = F100
J = 223 1V
9 = 1959
D = Dallas Texas Assembly Plant
17833 = 1959
110 = 110 Inch Wheelbase
E = Colonial White
F10J = Model Code = There's no J listed in the parts catalog, F10-0 or 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are the only codes.
21A = This is the build date, not the transmission code = January 21, 1959
01 = Ford 9 Inch / 3.70-1
Check the codes for Model and Trans (J is not the trans code, either). What you listed is in-correct.
SECOND LINE ON VIN PLATE READS: W.B; COLOR; MODEL; DATE; TRANS; AXLE
My info source: 1957/63 Ford Truck Parts Catalog ~ General Information Section.
