CRC Sheet on my truck

Post by spartman »

Got my spec sheet from ford the other day and this is what it said:

F10 1967 F-100 4x2
A 240 cid v-6 engine. Didn't know I had a v-6 in it.
R Built in San Jose, CA

Here are the options that came with the truck originally

115" Wheelbase
Pure White Exterior Paint Color
Styleside Pickup
Parchment Bucket Seats
Beige Interior Trim Color
3-speed Manual Transmission
Front Fender Extension (what are these?)
8.15 X 15-4 B/S/W PT tires
Full Air-HD Wedge Brakes (again what are these?)
55 amp alternator
Parking Brake Drum Guard
3.70 Non-Locking Regular Rear Axle Ratio

This is what FORD says I have.
I know that it had buckets at one time but they are now long gone. :cry:

I thought the paint code translated to wimbelton white but ford says Pure white.

Also what size would the 8.15's translate to in modern size?

Thanks for looking

Ford never put a V6 in these trucks....heck, they didn't even HAVE a V6 back then. That's an error...a 240 is a straight-six.

When I got my sheet back they also said that my truck came with buckets, when I know for a fact that it never did.....so you gotta take those sheets with a grain of salt, if you know what I mean.

I've never heard of a front fender extension, or Full Air-HD Wedge Brakes or parking brake drum guard either. Very interesting. Almost sounds like they're describing a heavy-duty truck and not a light-duty F100. :hmm:

:yt:
that was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw those options.
sounds like a big truck, like an f-700 or larger.
the full air-HD wedge brakes are basically semi-truck brakes, requiring an air system on-board.
the parking brake drum guard would be for a driveshaft-mounted parknig brake, again probably a bigger truck option.
the fenfer extensions are probably the larger opening F-600 and larger fenders the off-road group uses to clear bigger tires.

I think I would double-check the VIN they looked up and make sure it fits your truck.

just my 2 cents worth

Kinda what I thought.

I do know that it came with the buckets.

The guy I bought the truck from said it had them from new, however the buckets are long gone.

I did set in them once or twice before he sold me the truck. When he started to do his restoration on it he ditched the seats.

As far as the v-6 part I should have stated that I was inserting my tounge into my check first.

Wegde brakes would be a big rig brakes system, not something that would have come on a pickup.
Basically, air pressure forces a wedge between the ends of the brake shoes, causing them to expand and forcing the shoe into the drum.
The associated hardware and air pressure system would have been pretty heavy for our trucks.

Yeah, I got mine the other day also- I didnt recognize a couple theings:

- "Centre lights"
- "Hand Trottle"
- "Parcel Driver Seat"
- "HD Vacuum Booster Brakes" (would that be power brakes? because it doesnt have power brakes now.)
