Number Dummy can give you all the specifics, but as the lady pointed out, the link she gave you is a good place to start. First your truck is an F100, came with a 6 cyl, was built in Chicago, Long bed, montecarlo red, built Jan 27th, 3 speed standard with a 3.70 rear end. At least that is what the site breaks it down to. Number Dummy should have further insight. Good luck, sounds like a great truck!

I like to post the sites like this so if you are interested in saving the resource you can. I started doing that for myself five years ago and now have hundreds of resource sites I can pass along!

I'm not sure. YOU may want to ask the guys on the forum that has 65s on it though. Or, buy an owners manual and it will tell you.

THANKS! That is awesome! Too bad I wont own the truck much longer. I am trading it to someone for some cash and good parts for my 76 F100. I already know ill be kicking myself in the butt the second it leaves my driveway. I know its going to a good home. He is going to restore it back to factory and use it to pull his 1960 boat and trailer. I thought it was a cool idea. I will pass on the information to the new owner for sure. I'M GOING TO MISS IT!
