F25YRF57633 / 131 / / F254 / M 81 / G / 38 / 06900 / 175 / 4000 / DSO: 724756.
F25 = F250 2WD
Y = 360 2V
R = San Jose Assembly Plant.
F57633 = 1969.
131" Wheelbase.
No COLOR code.
F254 = F250 2WD, 6900 lbs. GVWR
M 81: M = Charcoal Black Corinthian Vinyl & Charcoal Black Granada Pattern Vinyl / 81 = 81B Custom Cab.
G = C6 Cruise-O-Matic.
