My decode books are in my storage unit, buried. Can anyone help me decode this?

Thanks!

Any chance the fender tag from this car is available for transcription? It'd be a heck of a lot easier to read accurately...

Urf, still pretty tough to read. Transcript is better than pencil rubbing. I'll give it a stab:

V: Valiant/Duster range
L: Low price/trim class
29: 2-door Fastback (Duster/Dart Sport) body
C: 225 1bbl engine
4: 1974 model year
B: Built at Dodge Main (Hamtramck, MI) plant
105687: Vehicle serial number
E24: 225 CID 1bbl 6-cylinder engine
D34: A904 Torqueflite automatic transmission
JY9: Main body paint: Tahitian Gold metallic, PPG #2510
M2YW: Interior: Medium trim class, gold vinyl bench seat
000: Upper door frame: Full door panel
423: Built April 23, 1974
163416(?): Vehicle order number
JY9: Roof paint: Tahitian Gold metallic, PPG #2510
U: Built to US market specifications
G11: Tinted glass, all windows
G52: Chrome remote driver's sideview mirror
H51: Integral AC + heat/defog
N76: Coolant recovery system
R11: Radio, Music Master AM
V5X: Mouldings, bodyside, w/black vinyl insert
L2(?): Donno, maybe not transcribed right. Could this be U2?
914: Donno, maybe not transcribed right

Thanks a million Dan! Thanks for making the extra effort to work through the lousy rubbing.

The L2 and 914 are indeed correct. I double checked.

The interior is all white except for the brown and gold stripes on the inserts.

Interesting.
