Those build sheets from ford are really interesting to read once you get them. You can request for one of those from fomoco's web site and they will sent it to you.

Very interesting! Which option should I select from the drop down menu? Literature Requests? Vehicle operations and maintnance?

Great tip. Thank you!

You go to specific vehicle specifications, and click the first option about the features/ packages, then this thing will pop up and you hit customer relationship center, and you email them your VIN number, and tell them you would like a build sheet. They will then email you back saying they received your email and that they will send you a build sheet. It seems to take them awhile to get the build sheet but it is really exciting and interesting once you get it.

Real nice truck Jimmy :thup: At least you get to meet the original owner and with any luck he may have some photo's of your truck when it was new .At least with that it would help to putting back your truck to the way it was if you so wish plus you can find out if the air conditioning was added or not and what the original mirrors looked like ...etc.
Good luck with your project and enjoy it as you go along thats all part of the fun :wink:

Nice truck. :thup: My first suggestion would be to get the rust out of your bed. And have one of the Spray in Bed liners installed. :$$: Though it will take. And since the underbed fuel tank and bedside door is there.I'd keep those as a spare tank and if you wanted still put back in the cab tank.

Nice looking truck. Where's your antenae for the radio? That doesn't look like a 67 instrument bezel. From what I can see, your dash pad looks to be in great shape! Now that I see that upholstery on your doors, I'll be looking for that trim! I think it might deaden some noise. I've sprayed some rubberized coating on the inside of the doors and it only helped slightly.

Does that A/C work?
