69 300 vert build sheet

So I had to get under the back seat to work on the convertible top lines and I ran across what was left of my cars original build sheet. I already know the car has been repainted red from its original color but you guys are the gurus so I thought I’d send it out to see if anybody notices anything different or unique about it. I had to get out my 3 yr olds Elmer’s glue to try to salvage this thing. Anyone know of a way to reprint these things?

Dodge truck Parking/ interior light issue

If I pull all the way to the stop the lights go off. If I pull the head light switch all the way out the headlights come on, but no running lights or dash light/ tail lights.

I have replaced the switch with a borg Warner life time warranty switch…. problem still…

So I recently sold my 1969 Chrysler 300 as I was looking for a different project. The new project is not a C body , but still a mopar. I have always enjoyed this website and forum as it’s members always give good advice that is not just a bunch of BS and the content is helpful. So I figured I’d post here anyway.

Just picked up a 1983 D-350 crew cab dually with a 360 4spd. Truck needs lots of tinkering…
