I have located what I think is a 1970 F600 Cab/Chassis. It has an FE series engine in it with a 4 speed transmission and 2 speed rear axle.
VIN: F61CKH52419
Model: F61 The MODEL code is composed of 4 digits, the 4th is missing.
Body: 4C8
Trans: A
Axle: F3D
164 HP @ 3800 RPM

C = 330 2V Meduim Duty FT engine.
K = Kansas City Assembly Plant.
H52419 = 1970.
F61? = F600. I cannot post what the GVWR is without the 4th digit.
4C8: 4C = Black Heavy Duty all Vinyl / 8 = 81A Standard Cab.
A = New Process 435 4 Speed Manual Transmission.
F3D: F3 = Eaton Model 15201 2 Speed Rear Axle / 6.33/8.81-1 / 15,000 lb. Rear Axle Capacity // D = Ford Rockwell Timken-Front Axle / 7,000 lb. Front Axle Capacity.
164 net HP @ 3,800 RPM.
The 1968/72 330 2V Medium Duty FT engine shares a few parts with the 360 2V FE engine, the crankshaft is the same.
FE engines were not installed in anything larger than an F350.

The 330 2V Medium Duty FT engine shares some parts with FE engines.
The FT 330 2V HEAVY Duty, 361 2V & 391 4V share only a few parts with FE engines.
FE/FT engines look basically the same. The exhaust manifolds are different, as are the carbs, some of which are Holley's with governors mounted on them.
The front/rear engine mounts are different. FT's have one front mount in the center, two mounts at the rear connected to ears on the bellhousing-then to the crossmember.
The only FE engines that mount like this are 1965 F100/250 4WD 352 / 1966 F250 4WD 352 / 1965/67 F350 352. All other FE's have two front mounts, one rear.
Strip all the accessories off, and without a bellhousing, your guess is as good as mine whether the engine is an FE or FT!

I do not have a title and am trying to figure out what this vehicle is?

It is a tilt cab truck.
I think the C70 is for C700 series.
I do not know what the N is for.
I think the U is for made in Louiville.
Can anyone tell me for sure?
