Truck is a 65 and could use some help deciphering vin, original paint code, engine tranny rear end etc. have had luck in the past on here so gonna post up some pics and see what you guys think If this truck has a 240 or 300 I-6, the hood emblem is correct. If it has the 352 2V, it's not. The stake bed is aftermarket as are the wheels and the radio antenna. Post a pic of the Warranty Plate, riveted to the left door face below the latch. |

Right fender emblem is 1965, but the painted steel grille is from a 1966.

You the man! You’ve helped me before. If I post pics of the engine and transmission can you help me figure out the years/type? They have been swapped |

i can can look for codes or whatever it takes to identify if you point me in the right direction here are pics to get started |
The valve covers have been painted, not sure what the 73 on inner fender wall is, and added a pic of rear axle to confirm it’s the 9” I’ve read the 9” are a very good axle? |

Dizzy cap with male ends introduced in 1977. How many valve cover bolt holes per side? The carb is a Motorcraft 2150 series 2V, introduced in 1975. It's probably original to the engine. Trans is an A/T .. How many trans pan bolt holes does it have (could be 11 or 17)? |

I'm no expert but looking at the pictures it looks to be a 302 and a C4.
