Looking for VIN data tag decoding help with early 1966

[bgaller]

Can anyone help me decode this? I went to the Bronco Ohio site, however a lot of the info doesn't match up.

92" wheel base
F for Arcadian blue
u140 4300gvw
197 is bench seat/half cab top
C is 3 sp man transmission
03 is 4.11 gears
42 is Fargo sales area

Just like the one in my avatar pic

I'm having the same issue. Went to Bronco Ohio but running into an issue with the model. I was told the VIN is for a '71. I'm probably reading the VIN wrong, but according to Bronco Ohio's site, U151 was built in '77.

Swiss aqua? That must be a more rare color....

Anybody got a picture of a Swiss Aqua Bronco? Sounds interesting!

Someone painted it red, but it's peeling and you can see the Aqua coming through.

This is a one owner '72 Sport in Swiss Aqua. This is actually the first Bronco that I rode in...in the '70's too!!;D;D

Oh! Yes!... It's the Bronco behind the Stunt Man!;D;D;D

The actual color has a bit more green in it than the pictures portray. It always looks blue in the pictures instead of 'Aqua'.
