Hi Brian,
Good to see another Coloradan! You know, I was surprised at how hard it is to find a slick around here. I thought they'd be a dime a dozen what with the low humidity and no salt on roads, but not quite. Maybe it was a few years ago, who knows.
Your VIN decodes as follows:
F10 = 2 wheel drive F-100
Y = 352 V-8
K = Kansas City plant
879599 = June 1966 mfg
Later,
Jason

Thanks !
You know, I thought it would have been easier to find one, but most of the Slicks I have looked at have had a terminal case of Cancer - I think you really have to not care about a truck here in our dry climate for one to rust away on you. My family is from SE Colorado, talk about a dry climate - My uncle has a 31 Model A (he is 2nd owner) that still has all the original sheet metal - no rust ever. And it was his daily driver in the 60's for 10 years. A little care and cleaning go a long way.
