Hey All!

We just bought my great, great Uncle's truck back into the family. It is now a 4th generation truck for our son.

We need some help with some decoding of the original paint colors.

Here's the info, if someone can help us, please.

F10C9A19571

Here's what we've figured out so far...

F10 = F100 2WD
C = 292 ID V8
9 = 1959
A = Atlanta, GA Plant

This is the part we need help with...

Base 110 = ?????????????
Color V = ?????????????

Also, if anyone knows of the Ford web link to write for a copy of the Build Sheet...please hook us up. ~ Many Thanks, Bea

 

Thanks for the link, but I guess I'll need to chcek with the dealership. I have contacted the Henry Ford Research Center, but the records were destroyed on a fire many years ago...was hoping someone new what the paint code "V" was for a 1959 F-100 Custom Cab. Can seem to locate the info..the trcuk is like a colonial blue color...but really wanted the actual name of color. Thanks Again.

 

Worf..The link you posted about the VIN is no longer valid
