1957, My 32 huppmobile My first car, I sent it to the scrap yard and then started work on a winning A dragster.,

If you want a good tire paint, check with Russia, have you noticed how good the missile carries in their May Day parade look? Actually, because Russia can't afford to change tired every 6 years due to ozone cracking, they paint them to protect them from ozone. So maybe there is a new life for tire paint!

With 5 cars registered, i get about 50 miles per year driving to local events. 😁 Gas mileage varies.

Danny, looking at the side view of the drag line bucket, I can see the front of a mini car, just add a seat and a few wheels.

Don't store a Vinal top in the down position as it will shrink, and you will not be able to put it up, Besides the mice love to sleep in it over the winter.

More pic's,

Correct VIN is 1FTYX98X4GVAC281010 I am guessing on the last 3 digits based on the best photo submitted by Larry. I think the 8th number (x) means there is a hidden #, 4.

You won't believe what I did, When I copied the correct VIV it didn't save it! I will start over again!

BINGO ! WITH YOUR HELP, i FINNALY GOT THE CORRECT VIN. Thank You from the bottom of my heart, Larry and all the others that took the time to help.

Check Digit (9th position) is correct"

Quoted from Google, " What are the old Ford divisions? Ford now encompasses two brands: Ford and Lincoln. Ford once owned 5 other luxury brands: Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar, Aston Martin, and Mercury. Over time, those brands were sold to other companies and Mercury was discontinued."

The truck was made in the Louisville Kentucky plant. I am trying to find out what division of Ford it is called for purposes of the VIN,, I would think it would be T for Truck?

According to a decoder that I printed, the second and third #s are the Manufacturer and division.

Best Image yet! thanks, Roger ( the third letter is "T" for truck ( I think)
