I went to the Broncohio site and looked up my 74, but I'm confused...

This is what I have so far

VIN on the Drivers Door Post - U15GLT46825 there is nothing in the data boxes

Data plate in the Glovebox - D7ZE-19A286-PA (the P could be a B it was a bit scuffed

So I know it's a U100 Wagon, with a 302, built in Michigan in Dec.

But I can't figure out the rest...Please help

Could be mixed parts?

You are correct so far. If you post the info from the data plate on the inside of the glovebox door I can tell you everything else. Not sure where you got the D7ZE number from, it looks like a 1977 part.

The D7ZE and so on is from the Data plate inside the glove box.

That's what has me confused. I think I may have a Franken-Bronco. There is no info on the strike plate sticker other than the VIN, and when I compare that to the Data plate in the glove box it's all confused.

Ok, D7ZE-19A286 is an engine data decal part number from 1977. Does it look like the one in this picture? The plate should be aluminum and riveted to the driver's side of the inside glove box door.

There is only the one decal in there, sounds like the engine data decal. Hmm...I wonder what happened to the rest of my data.

Thanks for the help, seems like I wasn't as confused as I though, I just didn't have all the pieces!
