Please decode this vin

Hi Folks,

I have a 1967 Mercury M100 pickup. The vin tag located on the firewall says:

F10YCA47463

131 M8 2D 4

The transmission casting says:

T-18-1
N1
W. O. DIV (the "O" may be a "G" or a "Q")

The tag on the rear differential says:

43-13

3.31

There is no vin plate on the door, but the 2 rivet holes are still there. I looked on the top of the frame rail on the passenger side adjacent to the alternator, but found nothing.

I did find a paper tag under my bench seat. It reads:

C7TB FRT. BACK

8164700-A

Thanks for all your help!

John

F10 = F100 2WD

Y = 352 2V

C = Oakville, Ontario Canada Assembly Plant

A47463 = 1967, Assembled November 1966.

131" Wheelbase

MB: M = Wimbledon White / B = Frost Turquoise

2D 4: 2D = Medium Blue Crush Vinyl & Medium Blue Bar Pattern Vinyl / 4 = Bench Seat.

W-O (G) DIV: Warner Gear Division = Borg Warner T-18 4 Speed Manual Transmission.

3.31-1 rear axle ratio: Not listed for 1964/72 F100's. The center section could have been swapped in from a passenger car which was available with 3.31-1. Or the ratio may be Canada only.

C7TB-8164700-A = FoMoCo ID number for the seat frame itself.
