Scanning all my collected 1966-67 Charger fender tag images and I found a few outliers. Anyone know what these mean?

1966 tag with code

1966 tags (3) with code
t6

1966 tag with code
T7

1967 tag with code
t0

I have attached some images.

1966 with the T7 I mentioned earlier.

1967 with the t0 I mentioned earlier.

do you have access to the broadcast or IBM card for any of these?

WAG: t/0 = EXPORT, t/6 = CANADA spec., T/7 = tachometer (but why don't all '66s have T/7, maybe a "RE-POP'd" tag??)

I am not specifically a Charger follower, but I am a 67 b-body follower. I have noticed that only a very few 66 Chargers have T7 present.

could I add one to the list?

My 67 Charger has "M2" on the second line. Any details on what this means would be great. Thank you!

the $64 question - Do you have your car's IBM card?

I have most of the Broadcast sheet.... not sure i have ever seen an IBM card?

can you post or email a pic/scan of the broadcast sheet?

I found a Belvedere II wagon with M/1 & it appears to be "power tailgate window" - maybe?

passenger side only HEADREST?

FCA Historical can sell you a copy (& decode) of the IBM card "BUILD RECORD" for your car ('67 & earlier)

I could send you a copy of it... Is there any reason why I would not want it posted here for others to see? I could do that too.

I sent a scan of what i have to your Email. I will PM you also

there appears to be nothing additional on your broadcast sheet that would trigger another "2" sales code with the need to be stamped/indicated on a fender tag

I did notice that most (if not all) Barracudas & Chargers (that I have fender tag pics of) after mid-January 1967 have the M/2 stamping on their fender tags

I wonder if it is in reference to all Barracudas/Chargers being assembled on "ASSEMBLY LINE #2" at Hamtramck, a precursor to EN2 that showed up late in the 1969 model year??

the less than 80,000 total '67 Barracudas & Chargers would not be enough volume to keep "ASSEMBLY LINE #2" occupied full time so there has to be Darts built on #2 also but I have NOT seen a '67 Hamtramck Dart fender tag with M/2??

Dan,

I've seen the same thing on the M2 code. They show up after sometime in January or Feb 1967. I have a Govier decode page that shows its an assembly line code "DESGINATED LINE 2 BUILD".

As for an IBM card for any of the tags I presented, I looked and actually I do have a card for the first tag surprisingly. 1966 XP29 61035309

Sales codes are as follows:

354 - Charger Group
404 - 3.23
408 - Sure Grip
451 - Power brakes
458 - Power windows
483 - Bumper guards
484 - Clock
521 - Tinted Glass (All)
548 - Padded Visors
557 - Retractible Seat Belts front and rear
579 - Undercoat & Underhood pad
61W - White roof stripes
689 - Special headers & tag info (refers to window sticker header)

696 *** I believe this is it for the Fender Tag t6 code. Now the question is, what is this code. A 1966 broadcast sheet shows 696 as "Hot Car", whatever that is. I've also seen 696 coded as "Fast Manual Steering" and "New Car Service with 5 Gallons of Gas". Which is it?

703 - Corporate lease program - executive


******************************

As for a 1966 with the T7 code, I recently saw a '66 Hemi Coronet with a T7 fender tag code and it had the console mounted tachometer. I wonder if a 1966 Charger purchaser could have specified that and got two tachometers? No idea why since the one in the dash is obviously more visible.

do the '66 Chargers with the T/7 have the OPTIONAL console mounted clock??

& found a '67 Hamtramck Valiant with M/2

The w6 code is the Canada Export code by the way.

If anyone knows what a "Hot Car" or code 696 means, please pipe up!

w/6 = CANADA (that's the same as '68)

I wonder if some of those questionable IBM lines in the late 60s are similar to 60 & 61?

60_ the actual translation is 30_ = vinyl top
61_ the actual translation is 31_ = accent stripes

Thank you, Dan, Jon for the M2 details. I was told Line 2 also about 10 years ago but just didn't think that was correct. I guess even now I wonder why if these were built on line 2 usually, why would they specify that this car "Must be on line 2"?

I'm sure it's more management of the entire process - keeping track of everything accounting to inventory

I think they did that because lines 30 and 31 were taken up by the PAINT codes. Line 39 is the transmission line, so I don't think it would convert over from line 69...interesting thought though.

Need to figure out what a "Hot Car" is.

I worked with Caterpillar for 18 years and they used the word HOT. For us it meant that this order was priority and a dealer was waiting for it. Many times it shipped directly from plant to customer without waiting for any other items or parts. Think like "Hot shot" shipping providers....
