Not to jump the thread, but I ran my truck on that decoder, and it said: Vin decodes as a 1977 F150 Pickup built at the Michigan Truck plant in February 1977 and powered by a 6 cyl 300 cid 1-bbl engine.

Which is all correct, except the sticker on the door jam said 3/77 as the date of manufacture, not February.
