Petr sent me a link to a great m code site. I thought I had decoded my sc untill I got this site. Just had to put the sc info in and find out some better info on it.

?
No, don't be adding "21" to the beginning of the VIN or chassis nr.
The 9 digit vin started for the 65 model year

It's a 66...You really need the M-Code plate for the rest.

That's the VIN tag from the overhead vent in the cab. The M-plate is behind the right front seat on the bulkhead. |
