Thanks! but what about the paint/trim codes? Also the rear axle code is 37x? does the "x" mean some thing different? Thanks again.

This is all from Dennis' "Ford truck info" page
Paint codes

Axle codes

Interior trim

The X refers to something in the steering or front suspension. Maybe sway bars?

Wow, now I am really confused. I just checked the paint codes and 7U comes up emerald!?!? My truck has the original paint and it's dark brown metallic w/light biege center. Where would be the best place to look for the build sheet in this thing? All the vins match. Does it being made 01/79 have anything to do with it? Just 'reaching' for ideas. Thanks

7 U is two tone paint
7 = Desert Gold Poly
U = Sand Poly
The 7U that you read is the FACTORY Colour "Mixing code" for emerald.
