66 F100 Data Plate

Hello, I have a 1966 F100 long bed that now has a 289 and is painted Wimbleton White. I believe it originally had a 6 in it and was painted pale yellow. I could use some help deciphering the date plate:

F10AC877869

128 8M F101 D81 C 09

C4200 129 4000 21

I hope I transferred them properly......any help will be greatly appreciated.


Rob
