That is correct. Galen has statistical information but no paperwork info like PHS. He also the keeper of orphaned broadcast sheets that have been found in cars over the years. (a common situation in Mopars) He has actually reunited several broadcasts with their cars over the years.

Steve - your statement is true for '67 and newer MoPars. For '66 and earlier cars, paperwork is available. The Chrysler Historical Collection in Detroit in most cases will have a Build Record (essentially like a buildsheet on a punch card). The build record will contain the serial number (VIN) and the all important Shipping Order Number (stamped 3 places on the body - one hidden). It also contains all options on car including powertrain. They will photocopy this record (see picture) from their archives for a very reasonable fee. Galen has had access to this info as well as some other former Chrys employees. This era includes the Max/Street Wedge and Race/Street Hemis !
