Ok ive got it, some of it atleast

Model Year: 79
Series: F250 - 4x4 Pickup
Engine: 6 Cyl, 240ci, 1bbl (Special Order)
Transmission: 4 spd, Manual, Warner T19
Your rear axle code is not right, and your Front axle which would be the same as the rear, and the assembly plant is unknown. I thought you had an 80-86 but an 79 popped up, it also said unknown vin number but i erased the first 4-5 digits and thats what came up, make sure you have the right vin and everything. Hope this helps.

Just updating....

Hey guys,

I appreciate you attempting to decode these numbers, but something definitely isn't right. This truck is a 84 one owner truck with a diesel. Definitely not a 79. Besides in 79 they did not use the 17 digit vin codes.
