Here's the fender tag off my '69 Super Bee. Most of it I've already deciphered, but curious to see what else comes up. The numbers after the B5 B5 in the third line I can't figure out what it is supposed to be, an H, M or W?

That 3rd line code should denote "Interior Group"

Oh that's AWESOME!!! thank you!!!! Hmmm...my car has the 3 speed wipers, but yet only a 2 speed switch inside. And I don't get why some of the info comes up "unknown." Has to be something.

It got 3 speed wipers due to being an N96 ramcharger hood car. The breather does not have room with a 2 speed wiper motor.

Thanks mattsmopars, I knew that at "one time" and even put it in a "post" once or twice"
LOL

I'm getting old!
 
Hey no trouble at all! I have to have my name and place of work on my shirt, so I know who I am and where to stop at for work. LOL

After seeing more of the details that I didn't know before I feel kind of bad that it was repainted black with a Six Pack hood on her, though I do LOVE THE SIX PACK!!! And the rear end is now a 4:10 gear, or at least has the 4:10 tag on the axle cover.
 
Does it have a Dana 60 under it now? Or still the original 8 3/4? The 8 3/4 is a front loaded 3rd member style like a ford 9".
The Dana 60 has a rear inspection plate.
The reason I ask is factory mopar dana 60's only came in 3.54 and 4.10 gear applications in these cars. The 8 3/4 that it cam with had lots of different gear available and by your tag it was a 3.91 gear 8 3/4" axle package car.

It's a Dana 60 now. So I'm much better off.
