Bill Thanks for the breakdown. It's a 65 Coronet 500 convertible. From what I can tell I'm not getting any break. I'm getting "Photocopy of IBM card & selling dealer info (no decoding) $45". The other option was "Build Record - 1930-1967 w/ decoding, if available (includes dealer info) $45"...same $...less info from what I can tell, unless it would cost me $90 for build records & a. IBM card...dunno. Bill M On 5/8/07, Bill Watson <wwatson5@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Basically, the build record is an IBM card with 80 columns. The columns are used to recoerd such stuff as the Shipping Order Number, Region Number, Dealer Number, Make/Model. Series. Body Style, Paint, Trim, Engine, Transmission, Equipment and Serial Number. The dealer info tells you to whuch dealer the car was shipped from the factory. The decoding sheet info will tell you what all the numbers punched on the card stand for. In other words, you will know - Shipping Order Number and Scheduled Build Date Region Number (Sales region of dealer) Dealer Number (Dealer information) Make/Model Series Body Style Paint information Trim - seat style, upholstery, colour Engine Transmission Equipment installed on the vehicle (standard and optional) Serial Number - deocoded . The upper area of the card also records the date the car was shipped from the factory. Now, as Chrysler Historical does not have the info on hand to decode your card, they are saying you can buy a copy of the build record for $20 less than the normal price. Pretty decent of them, really. By the way, what year and make is your car? . Bill Vancouver, BC
