I sent you a pm, happy to help if you would like, though the best "numbers" expert on these cars is Dave Watt who also is a Moparts member.

Finally, go to this website, more info on A12's then you would ever want:

I would do as Dave suggested and get in touch with Dave Watt.It's really not necessary to post the information.Every time someone post's a picture of a tag it usually turns into a circus.If you didn't get Dave Watts email address,PM me and I'll give it to you.

Thanks guys for the nice comments.
70RT Charger, if you're trying to get an idea of how common/uncommon the color of the car is, I've put together a spreadsheet of known cars in my database. Click on the attachment.
I'd be happy to tell you where this Bee falls in line of production.

That kinda stinks for someone that wanted to "share". Hope they come through.

Been living on an African Hunting forum lately. Only pop in here now and then to see if you found my original motor yet. 9A280118 last known to be alive and well in Caldwell Idaho in 1983.

Yes I am a shameless self promoter.

Thanks for helping Dave expand his database. It helps all of us in the long run and Dave does this on his own time with no financial reward by sharing the info for free to anyone.

Thanks Jim. I was given the green light to share the particulars of the car.
It's an A12 Bee hardtop, F6 green, stripe delete, High grade black bench, no vinyl top.
March 29 build date. It is one of the first 100 4-speed Bees ordered by Chrysler to be built.
This is one of 7 F6 Bees in my files that are stripe delete.
