What's happening Bronco lovers?

Here is the VIN: U15GLE51285

Here are some numbers under it:

092 M U150 9098 C B8
16

From what I gathered from the VIN: '69 model with a 302. What do all the numbers underneath mean? I am hoping it will at least provide the gear ratio info.

Thanks,

Charles

Well I just found a link on another post that provides the info I needed.

C = White
B8 = 3.50 LS
16 = Philadelphia

What about the 092, M and 9098?

from the Broncohio.com site:

C = 3-speed manual

The M is your color -- White (I think).

The 092 is your wheelbase size, but not sure about the other number.

Actually, you can call a ford dealership & they'll be able to tell you what the other numbers are for. I have a subscription to a parts magazine called LTD parts - just here in Kansas - and I just looked at it & it has the breakdown of what each segment stands for. I don't have it with me, but I can get it & get back to you. The last numbers, if I remember correctly, are where your truck was assembled - what plant it came out of. I just can't quite remember what the rest of it was.
