I know it's not a big deal to some guys but I decoded the Vin on my 62 F100. I have no problem decoding o/t vins but this was my first try on an older vehicle. F10CR***** F10 is the series meaning F100 (obviously) C is the Engine code- 292 R is the Assembly Plant - San Jose (truck has been pretty much local all of its life) ***** is the serial number (this truck was built in June of 1962) Color T - Sandshell Beige Transmission Code G - Heavy Duty Cruise O Matic 3 Speed Axle Code 11 - Ford 9 Inch with 3.70 gearing The only way I was able to do this was with the help of the factory shop manual. I tried searching the web but couldn't come up with anything for 62 that was complete.
I just purchased a 1962 F100 and on the door plate i retreived what I think is a vin#F10JH432089 But the title says C2TF10000K. Which is correct or is this a bad title.
54 intl, your original vin is the F1O..... number. the other one might be a replacement id tag or something...
