VIN Decode
Tried the decoder. Gave me the model year and that it was made in Kansas City. Some help on this would be appreciated. X265KDK0416

That 4th digit is probably an S, not a 5.

X26 - F250 4WD Supercab '78-79
S - V8 400 2BBL
K - Kansas City
DK0416 - assembly number 1979 model year

That's the # I pulled off the title. I'll have to swing by the mechanics and double check the plate. That would suck, lot's of paperwork at the DMV if you're right.
