3. Broadcast sheet - Under rear seat, front seat,

4. Certicard - Inner Fender. This contains
your cars VIN number, Transmission, axle, and paint codes.
I have just
touched lightly on car documentation. The subject is wrote extensively by the MoPar
guru Galen V. Govier monthly in High Performance Mopar ( formerly in
MOPAR MUSCLE ) and in Galen's "White Books". Galen is always interested
in hearing about any Mopar, and would like to receive a pencil rubbing of your VIN, Fender
tag and photo copy of your Broadcast sheet. The White Books contain how to read a
VIN number, a Fender Tag, and a Broadcast Sheet. The books also list production
numbers by model and sometimes by engine and/or transmission.
