To be honest, I always looked with interest at the threads for fender tag decoding, but was never really interested in doing my own. Today it was pissing rain, and my son's baseball games got cancelled, so I started trying to figure it out. The guy that ordered this car (1967 Chrysler 300 drop top) must have just started checking boxes until he was told to stop. I think I have most of them but interested if anyone else can fill in the blanks. 440 TNT car.

A6- Console
B4- Bucket Seats
D7- couldn't find
G6- remote mirror
H7- Fender top turn signals
J0 - Tilt Telescopic Wheel
U1- Ordered Car

A1- 26 inch radiator
B0 - ?????
D9 - Disc Brakes
E1 - Clean Air Package ??
H2 - Power Locks
J4 - Unknown (6 way Power Seat??)
K8 - Power Windows
L9 - Power Vents
Q9 - Power Antenna
R3 - Radio (with reverb??)
S1 - Air conditioning
X1 - All tinted windows
Y1 - Black Convertible Top
AX48 -3.23 with Sure Grip
M3X - Leather Interior?

Could not find a code for Accent Stripe, Side marker lights, Dual headrests, passenger mirror, power trunk, Can anyone fill in the blanks for me?

Is the B0 clearly a code stamp and not an inspection stamp or a different character?
What is your Accent stripe code?

D7 - 477 - HD Rear Brakes
B0
E1 - 471- Clean Air Package - Yes (California Car)
J4 - 544 - Molding - Body Sill Narrow
R3 - 423 - Radio - AM/FM

Side marker lights didn't exist in 67, if your car has them they were added later
I think the head rests are either k3 or p3 - 533 Head Rest L/R (Could have been added)
I think the Mirror is either k7 or p7 - 537 - Right Mirror (Could have been added)
488 Power Deck Lid Release (not sure where the code would be, could have been added)

Not every option or sales code is listed on a tag. The general guideline is only things that affect paint, trim, drivelines and options requiring modification to the body, like holes pinched in the firewall, fender or for wiring passages or brackets are coded.

For this reason, moldings are typically coded but things like headrests are not. I’m still skeptical that rear brakes would be coded on a tag.

Every plant has its own coding nuances.

Thanks for this, Couple of things, Clearly marked BO in the second row. Also, I misspoke, they are not Side Marker lights they are "cornering lamps" according to the manual. The power deck release existed in the trunk when I got the car, as did the vacuum lines, and the button in the glove box, but there was no canister under the hood. I found and installed one.
