Fender Tag:
This is the fender tag from my car. So far, I have
decoded it using a number of sites: DodgeCharger.net, LightningJar.com,
Bob's Mopar Muscle Page,
and MaxWedge.com. It's
not as tough as they say... if you have any trouble, you can contact me at
RagingPB45P@hotmail.com, and I might be able to help. Also, if you're
looking for a concrete guide, Pah Publishing
has a good manual for decoding broadcast sheets, which contains some of the
same codes. ...That's another project I'm in the middle of...
