I received today from the DaimlerChrysler Historical Collection a copy of the original Build Record for my 1946 WDX. Lots of good information. It gives the exact date of build, the cab # matches my cab, the winch, overflow tank, 5.83 axle, tow hooks are all OEM. Even has the number of the original engine that was replaced years ago. If I can figure out the codes for tires and wheels, I will confirm that the 7.50x16 are also original.
Build Records are available for:
1930 to 1950 U.S. built trucks
1930 to 1967 U.S. built automobiles
from
DaimlerChrysler
Corporate Historical Collection
CIMS 488-00-00
One Chrysler Drive
Auburn Hills, MI 48326-2778
Send name, address, telephone, e-mail, year, make, model, VIN/SN. Be patient, it will take a few weeks. (There may be a charge if they can decode the record.)
