F10 = F100 2WD

D = 352 2V 208 GROSS HP @ 4400 / 172 NET @4000

L = MICHIGAN TRUCK ASSEMBLY PLANT

709652 = BUILT JULY 1965


Post the rest of the warranty plate and we can decode the rest too.

when you open the driver side door, look where the latch is and it should be just below it.

D decodes to 352 2V only (and was only used for the 352 in 1965 only).

The net HP & RPM is listed separately on the Warranty Plate.

The gross HP & RPM are not listed on the Warranty Plate. The gross HP is listed on the air cleaner decal.

Cool..... We don't "see" too many of these old trucks built at the Michigan plant still around.
Most of the remaining '61-'66 Ford truck 'survivors' were made and lived most of their lives down south or out west.
I suspect that most Michigan-made trucks died a horrible death -- by being eaten alive by the road salt exposures 6 months/year!

(Hmmmm,,,I wonder if there is a way to list the members here and the state where their '61-'66 F-series trucks were manufactured?)

Start a thread, ask all the members to post the 5th digit of their VIN.

Don't forget to ask for the DSO code...for the district sales office where the truck was originally ordered from.

Once everyone posts the info...you can decode all of this jazz.

what's better than reproduction parts? originals!

That link Back265 posted is to some people who just buy up old trucks and sell them either whole or parts off of them. I would actually rather buy one of their trucks if it's in good enough shape and have parts that are original (if they aren't too worn out)
