Hi All, Hoping someone here maybe able to help me identify my brother-in-law's, Ute details. He has a Ford Deluxe Coupe Ute with a body number 51A671026. It is a big restore job and we were just trying to find out some basic details; like year of manufacture and original specs etc. All I can add is it has a slimline rectandular frame around the speedo and a fuel gauge in the sppedo window/ off to the side. Not much to go on I realise, but I was hoping someone here maybe able to suggest where we could go to track down some info based on the body numbers..? Thanks for any advice or any offerings. Cheers and all the best for 2011. Ace

So what you're saying is you don't know what year/model it is? How do you know it's a Deluxe? Could be a 46 -8.

Look up the Early Ford V8 Club in Sydney, they'll help.

And BTW, this question is in the wrong place, it should be here:

Sorry for the wrong area / catagory of the post. I'll repost it in the area you suggested. The "Deluxe" is indicated on the boby. (Possibly on the dash) Will find out exactly where when I get to contact the in-law. I'll contact the Early Ford V8 club as suggested. Thanks for your assistance. Cheers Ace
