Warranty # F260
C = 2bbl 292 Medium Duty V8
E = Mahwah NJ Assembly Plant
452507 = Early Sept '63
Model F260
Body:
6 = Trim Code, black, all vinyl
81 = Conventional Standard Cab
Trans F = Warner T-98 (synchronized)
(YOU ARE MISSING an additional code here, for the front axle. )
Axle 24 = Spicer 60 4.56 ratio, 5200 lb capacity
(Front axle code MAY be here.)
GVW 6800
Color J = Red (I don't mean to step on Instiga8tr's toes, but it isn't "Rangoon." This designator does not appear in the dealer paint listings for trucks. From '57 - '59 "Torch Red" was available. From '60 to '62 "Monte Carlo Red" was used, but even this was officially dropped after '62. From '63 on it is just called Red.)
WB 120 = wheelbase
Horse power 135 @ 3800 RPM
DSO
13 = New York
68 = Dealer specific
34 = Indianapolis
(If you have noticed all the edits, I apologize. It's what I get for taking happy pills for pain. Sorry.)
