What does it mean

[JD's American car]

This is the tag under in the engine bay..

Any idea what they represent?
I've worked out some of them. Can you tell what rear axle is fitted? Sure grip?

From the look of the sticker to the right of the Data Plate, I'm suspecting it is a middle 1970s or so car? Yes, the axle ratio should be on the tag. A better picture would help, though.

In general, the format template for the Data Plate is in the front of the 1970s Chrysler Parts Manual, in the INFO section in the front. A list of the option codes can be found in the Library section of the Dealer Order Guide at www.hamtramck-historical.com (might have to manually input that address). Follow the prompts to get to your model year and such.

The bulk of online decoders are for the more popular B- and E-body cars. Although there are some cross-overs of option codes, some do not exist in C-body land.

Thanks for the info.. It's a 1973 . Unfortunately that is the only photo I have.

when the car gets to england look for the buildsheet.
it will give all the info - assuming the correct buildsheet is in the car, sometimes they'd get put in the wrong car.

when ypu find it we can help you figure it out but in the meantime search the site for info on buildsheets and where to find them.
usually in a seat back or underneath the rear seat

 

[JD's American car]

Thanks for that. There is one but it is in poor condition. Not sure it's gonna help.

No there is no rear axle info on your 1973 Imperial 2 door body tag.

Look on your broadcast sheet for a column labeled PIN. I have circled one in red I believe is the PIN and it says 29 which would be 2.9 gears.

If you look at the top left second line down the will be a D code for axle and that will tell more, hard to read your sheet on here.

Thanks for thinking of me. My interest and decoder is limited to 1960-1966 with some mild interest in 1967-68. No use reinventing an existing decoder.

 

[JD's American car]

That's brilliant. When it is in my possession I will be able to try and restore the sheet. Many thanks.

 

[JD's American car]

Love it... great.

 

[marko]

while you wait for it to arrive heres some reading for ya
lot of info here on the excellent hamtramck site :

The 1970 Hamtramck Registry - 1973 Chrysler Dealership Data Book - Imperial

(you can look on the dodge monaco page it has the code #s that arent listed on the imp pages)

LBF6 corresponds to green cloth & leather split bench seat

 

[JD's American car]

That's brilliant. Thank you for that info..

Just don't try and pull on the sheet itself. Grab the springs and pull them away from the paper to release it without damaging the sheet any further. It actually looks in pretty good shape, but, they can be very fragile after all this time.

 

[JD's American car]

Great. I will be careful. I want to preserve as much information as possible. I do know that the car came from New Hampshire.
