Thanks again! Well Chrysler Historical doesn't have the newer stuff available, so I might be out of luck if I don't find the missing pieces to the BS sheet I do have. It's a bummer because I'm missing a bunch of info at the top of the sheet like the VIN (guess that would be important if I had a $150,000 GTX), the rear end info, and etc... I didn't check under the seat maybe that is next.

Depends on the punch card. The early ones, with the production info, do. The Quality control card does not.
Hey Doug, How ya doin ?
I think the real value in having the punch card for 68 and earlier cars is that it ties the SO number and the VIN together. So, you have a good title and VIN. We'll use my GTX for example. I also have the fender tag with the SO. No build sheet. Obviously the VIN shows the car as a 440 (L)Which as I understand was only available in the B body Plymouth as a GTX ,but who's to say some previous owner just did the dash swap on a Sattelite. If you have the punch card, it will have the SO number on it that should be stamped on your radiator support,trunk lip and fender tag. The punch card also has the VIN on it. If it all matches, in my humble opinion. You have established at least, pedigree. Not sure it is a valid point, but it helps me sleep at night......

Doin' well thanks! And you?
Your car is a perfect example of why the Quality Control card can be very useful. It ties the VIN and SO/VON together.

1969 St. Louis plant VINs, SPD, and VONs. Over 2,000 thanks to you!

It is a 1966. I would like to know the axle the car was ordered with since my Dart is one of the VERY few that came with the factory 8 3/4. Knowing the gear ratio would be a huge deal since this car was ordered as a factory performance car.
