Hi all, I was wondering what is the best site to download fuselage bodies tag?

Before that, could someone tell me what features and equipment my car has?

Cheers!

Lot of thanks. What does "astrophonic" mean in radio? My car radio has both AM and FM frequency, see picture. And it has foot searching.

”Astrophonic” does not mean anything, really. It is a phrase the sales people whipped up. You have a regular AM-FM mono radio, with the nice-to-have foot operated tuner. I had the same in my former ’70 NYer.
 
Foot operated tuner? Can someone please expand on that? No clue.
 
There is a switch on the floor next to the high beam, which looks like the high beam switch, but operates the radio by a wire. You step on it, and the radio changes into next station. - Very neat feature.
 
Now I don't understand the Chrysler fender's tag code logic. For example, my car has option RH Manual Standard Mirror. The fender's tag e.g includes option "Duel Rear Speaker w/ R85" (code R31) but not G31 (OS RH Mirror). What is the logic here? Is the speaker more important than the mirror? :)
 
Your car is over fifty years old. Very possible that someone added the RH mirror afterwards. (My fifty-three year old NYer just got it’s RH mirror two years ago.)
 
Of course, thanks 330dTA. Now I remembered that my cousin have 1972 Dodge Monaco 2dr ht and he has same situation; no RH Mirror in any datasheet.
 
It is also possible, that the RH mirror was added by the dealer, when the car was new. Perhaps the first owner insisted on having one. - You can tell if the RH mirror was added later by the screws at it’s base: no screws = factory installed; visible screws = added later on.

i think you're over thinking the rh mirror and the body tag.
my car was ordered with the rh mirror and its not on the body tag but is on the build sheet.
and as @330dTA pointed out, if it was installed at the factory, no screws will be visible
