I'm going to guess late 60's early 70's any older would be more rounded I would think but it still has old style round headlights.
In which case it would have a 240/300 inline 6 motor. (basically same engine)
2 questions that could help us clarify the year:
Does it have power steering?
Is the carberator on the driver side of engine block or on the passenger side of engine block?

that unit could run into the mid 80's, they generally built them the same untill the nos parts were used up, Ford was well known for that

Then its older then I thought. That motor would be a 223 then I believe cause 240/300 had the carberators on the right or passenger side

At the top of the page here there is actually a vin number decoder. Hover your mouse over where it says articles/specs, and then click on vin decoder.
Also, welcome!

Hmm im not sure then. There is a user on this site numberdummy, and he is a whiz with part numbers, and could probably help you out.
