Did this not come up before? I thought no truck serials were in the 200k or 300k #'s

that is great information...but not the answer to my question...
..." IFYOU HAVE A TRUCK THAT WAS BUILT AT THE BALTIMORE PLANT IN AUGUST, 1968...WHAT WOULD THE "SEQUENCE NUMBER" BE????"

Longhorn Man · 08-18-2005, 09:19 PM

They all start at 100001 every year. (model year)

jmth52 · 08-19-2005, 03:03 AM

...so what was the sequence number "at the end of the model year for 1968" from trucks built at the Baltimore plant? ...which I understand would have been August , 1968....and they would have started building the 1969 trucks in Sept., 1968.....Is that correct?

which state is fremont in ?? California ??

Longhorn Man · 08-19-2005, 08:15 AM

yes, there used to be a plant in Fremont California.

jmth52, this is info that you may never find. There are no records that I am aware of on this. They didn't record every little thing like they did on mustangs and camaros.
Look in your drivers side door jamp, there is a chance that there is still a sticker there that gives the date the truck rolled off the assembly line. If it is gone, then it is a crap shoot.

Why is it you need this info if I may ask?
