yeah, i'm gonna have to agree. one there are NO prodcution numbers for dodge trucks as of this time.
quad headlamps were 79-80 only NOT 76 Black interior was NOT standard. black was NOT avail with all colors. What are western wheels? 15x7's were not an option in 76
the colors posted, most were not avail in 76 or 77 the CNA designation for stripe code would be INCORRECT. the Cxx codes were front axles
stripe codes were in Mxx codes and paint procedures were in Pxx codes.

noT everything is incorrect. just that we know of some that exist, like 76440, he has a 77 sweptline, and it has parchment interior. just like the musclecar era. never say never w/Ma. EDIT: sorry, meant to say "not" not "no"

that was the book that Skip Gibbs made. he has a lot of information, but not all info. Like Galen, he is human, and can make mistakes, and will more than likely fess up to them, when the guru probably wouldn't....
