I bought these docs of eBay back in May but just picked them up last week. When I purchased them, as per the seller's comments, I thought that
they were for 1956 Dodges and that they would help me figure out 1956 Dodge order codes.
After I had made the purchase, it was noted that the Owner Service Certificate was dated November 26, 1956, i.e. well into the 1957 Dodge model year.
Upon further inspection of the model number (286) and the trim (217) and paint codes (LHL), Igor (frwl) confirmed that I had screwed up and what I
had purchased was 1957 Dodge info, not 1956 Dodge info.
All that said, here are scans of what I got from the eBay seller (who says that they were fooled by the November, 1956 date to think it was 56 Dodge info)
(I am curious as to what Copies 1, 2 and 3 of the In-transit certificate were lableled)

Igor (frwl) has taken the time to break down what those In-Transit Certificates say, based on his extensive 57 Dodge info data base and he emailed me the results.
Thanks Igor
