Soooo, I was wrong with my answer?




Nope. You are 100% correct. I spoke extensively tonight with Dave Stuart about this very subject. He has the most unbelievable source of paperwork and factory documents from the sixties and seventies that I have ever seen. It is truly remarkable what you can obtain when you are a bigwig at Chrysler for 20+years. He said that the factory shipped items in the trunk that are (even today) referred to as "loose items". These are not normally covered by the factory warranty and include pieces such as floor mats, front license plate holder, trim rings, manuals, etc.... The vehicle traveler form was used as a quick reference to keep all the items and other paperwork married with the car. I asked Dave what he thought about it being a "problem" form and he said it would not have served that particular purpose. The factory used a separate form that listed problems found with the car. That was used as a reference for the final inspection of the vehicle before it left the manufacturing facilities.
