Hey guys, a friend is looking at '73 Road Runner and he sent me the VIN to post in the hope that the numbers gurus on Moparts could help with any info on what the #s mean:
RM21H3G229455

I don't mess with "late model" Mopars, are '73's supposed to have fender tags? 'Cause if so they are missing from this car.

Thank you in advance for any help with this.
