i have a 1972 f800 vin # n81evp31906, what is the gvw and other components?

 

I'm assuming your 72 tag is similar to my 81.
GVW on same tag as serial number? Axle codes on tag too? Also a stick on info tag near serial tag?
My microfiche starts at 1973 and shows n81 as a 1975 & up LN800 with gas engine. I guess what I have won't do any good for your 1972. I didn't think they would change that much.
Best I could do, Dennis.....

 

Better check that VIN. If it's really an "N", then it's not an F800. That would be "F81********". "N8********* in 1972 would be a -LN800, or a short nose Louisville, completely different from an F-series.

 

Thanks for all the help, getting closer
