BROADCAST SHEET DECODER
1970 DODGE CHARGER 500 (XP29)
The information below is only data that has been proven to exist on 70 Charger 500 broadcast sheets based on the data in the 70 Charger Registry Database. As more broadcast sheets are received and new information/codes are identified they will be incorporated into this list.
The broadcast sheet is the build sheet that was printed at the factory and used by the assembly line workers to build the Charger. It tells them all the options to throw on the car as it moves down the assembly line.
The broadcast sheet was sometimes left in the vehicle as it left the factory and might be found under the back seat, under the front seats, under the carpet or taped to the back of the glove box.
If you are lucky you will find a broadcast sheet in your Charger....if you are very lucky it will actually be the right one for your car (the wrong sheets have been routinely found in cars) and if your very, very lucky it won't be illegible. Many are heavily imprinted with the seat springs and make sections of the broadcast sheet unreadable, however in some instances, the 70 Charger Registry Database can assist in determining what the illegible values are.
The data on the broadcast sheet is a combination of option codes, part numbers and assembly line numbers which can be hard to decipher. The 70 Charger Registry Database has allowed us to build a clearer understanding of what each code means. Decoding the broadcast sheet is as simple as looking at each box and cross referencing to the data below.
NOTE: If you have not yet registered your 70 Charger with the 70 Charger Registry please do so as it helps us build the data required to provide 70 Charger owners with this type of information. If you have your broadcast sheet, or one that belongs to another 70 Charger, again, please send the 70 Charger Registry a copy.
The 1970 Dodge Charger broadcast sheet will have the following heading at the very top of the sheet:
CHRYSLER CORPORATION CAR PRODUCTION BROADCAST
F SERIES 1970
To decode the broadcast sheet we will start with line 1 at the top working left to right across the sheet and then down line by line through line 11 at the bottom and then into the REMARKS section. Lets begin
.
LINE 1 BASIC CAR
SEQUENCE NUMBER:
This number was used by the St. Louis Chrysler Assembly Plant staff as an in-house method of tracking the vehicle at the plant, and through the assembly process. It may begin with the letter B or the letter C. To date there is no determination on when or why the plant would use the letter B versus the letter C. The Sequence Number, in of itself, is of no clear use to you the owner.
VEHICLE ORDER NUMBER:
This box is divided into two sections. The first three characters represent the build or production date of the car. This is the date the car was actually built at the assembly plant. The production year for the 1970 Charger began in August 1, 1969 and ran to July 10, 1970. The production date code is 3 digits and includes a factory identifier for the month (1 digit) followed by the day of that month (2 digits). The possible codes are:
8=August 1969 01-31
9=September 1969 01-30
A=October 1969 01-31
B=November 1969 01-30
C=December 1969 01-31
1=January 1970 01-31
2=February 1970 01-28
3=March 1970 01-31
4=April 1970 01-30
5=May 1970 01-31
6=June 1970 01-30
7=July 1970 01-10
** Note: Last build date was July 10, 1970
The next six characters indentify the vehicle order number. This number is simply assigned to the original order sheet. Sometimes it is preceded by a letter, such as C, E, K, M, Q or T. To date we have not been able to determine any rhyme or reason for the sequence of these numbers however the use of the letters has been proven to be as follows:
C= Canadian Car
E= Export Car
K= Special Order (Y39)
M0= Car Was Built For Show (only seen on early built cars)
M9= Car Came With Factory Sunroof (M51)
Q= Executive Lease (Y22) or Public Relations (Y28)
T= CLC Lease Car (Y24)
Note: It is possible that when a car qualifiesfor multiple designations, one will trump the others. The only documented example of this to date is a Y28 Public Relations car that also came equipped with a factory sunroof (M51) and the car could have been designated with an M or Q, in this case M was used, thereby trumping the use of Q.
This is the full VIN of the car which is broken out in six sections.
Car Line: For 1970 Charger 500s this will always be XP which means it is a Charger 500.
Body Type: This will always be 29 which means Sport Top.
Eng: This denotes the engine the car came with. The applicable codes here would be:
G = 318 cid 2bbl
L = 383 cid 2bbl
N = 383 cid 4bbl
Year: For 1970 Chargers this will always be 0 (zero) which is the last digit of the model year.
Plant: This denotes which assembly plant built the car. Since all 1970 Chargers were built exclusively at the St. Louis Assembly Plant this would always be G.
Sequential Number: This is the build sequence number at the
Y VEHICLE DELIVERY AND HANDLING Y:
This section consists of option codes that reflect what specifications/markets the car was built for and special handling scenarios if applicable. You will note the heading has a Y designation. This means the option codes that appear in each box is automatically preceded by a Y. There are seven boxes in this section each with a unique meaning.
Build To Spec For 0-: This code determines what specifications/market the car was built for. The applicable codes here would be:
Y05 Built to
Y07 Built to
Y09 Built for Export Specifications
Dom. Public 11: Identified by a value of "1" in this box.This code would designate a Military Sales Order. The car would also be designated as a Y09 Export order.
Lease Bid
Y13 - Charger Demo (for use as a demonstrator)
Y17 - Corporate Lease Car System
Y22 - Corporate Lease Car - Executive
Y24 - C.L.C. - Direct Leasing
Y33 - Fleet Sales
Sold Car Sales Bank 1-: This code indicates whether the car was built for a customer order, or was part of a sales bank pre-determined order by the company that was shipped to dealers for sales on their dealer lots. To clarify, a customer order means a customer sat down with a dealer and completed an order form outlining exactly what options the customer wanted his/her car to be build with. A sales bank car is one that was delivered to the dealer and a customer would buy the car off the lot
.in that scenario someone within Chrysler decided what options to build the car with, likely based on marketing data, and the customer had no hand in that process. The applicable codes here would be:
Y12 Dealer Export Sale (dealer order for export)
Y14 Sold Car Order (customer order)
Y16 Sales Bank Order
Special Order 39: This code (option code Y39)identifies if the car was designated as a special order. This would be typically for show cars, road tests and the like where the car was designated for extra care in the assembly process to ensure the highest vehicle quality and fit and finish. A value of 9 in the box means this was a Special Order car and would be extremely rare.
New Car Service 8-: This code would designate if the car was given special service, such as gasoline and prep before delivery. To date we have seen no 70 Charger 500s with a code here.
Show Car Finish 9-: This code would designate if the car was given special care and attention when they applied the paint/finish. To date we have seen no 70 Charger 500s with a code here.

W 0-:
This code indicates if the spare tire was deleted or if a regular spare was requested. Since 70 Charger 500s came standard with a spare tire the latter instance is not applicable and would never be reflected here. To date we have seen no 70 Charger 500s with a delete spare code here, however if the spare was deleted the code W07 would appear and would be reflected by a 7 in the box.
W 3-:
This code (option code W34) indicates if the car was ordered with a spacesaver spare tire as an option. If this was an option ordered, this would be reflected by a 4 in the box. To date we have seen no 70 Charger 500s with a code here.
