I don't have a pic or any other info from the truck this came from. I found this plate on a rusty old door at a junkyard and thought I'd keep it. The topic of this has been discussed before at another site, but I thought I would post a pic of the VIN plate just to show that it does exist. I thought about trying to get a Marti Report for this plate just to see what they could come up with, but those things aren't cheap. Anyway, if anyone else that would have any other info pertaining to a truck that has the F13 on the VIN plate, that'd be interesting.

As you can see, the F13 doesn't exist on this illustration.

It's a short-lived heavy F150 package that Ford put out back in 1976 to boost sales. It gets that F13 VIN, 3/4 ton suspension, the works.

That's what I thought it was, but I was shut down rather quickly. I've seen brochures of this truck, but can't seem to find them again.

It is my belief that is an F-100 with a Dana axle.


I am still doing research on this F130

Saw someone posted brochures, too, but can't remember which forum. Projectbronco?
