Chrysler Build Sheet
Looking for original factory specifications for your Chrysler? A Chrysler build sheet details the exact options, packages, paint codes, and drivetrain specs the vehicle carried as it rolled off the factory floor. Some automakers provide access to their build sheets at no cost. To make these build sheets easier to look up, iSeeCars created a Chrysler Build Sheet tool: enter any Chrysler VIN and, when an official build sheet is available, it appears instantly. If the automaker doesn't have one available, the tool searches for the availability of a window sticker which provides similar details to a build sheet.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Chrysler Build Sheet and What Is Its Purpose?
Inside every Chrysler lies a blueprint known on the assembly line as a build sheet--or, in period jargon, a broadcast sheet. Compiled the moment the vehicle order arrived at the plant, it spells out everything from body color and interior trim to engine, transmission and optional equipment. Workers referenced the sheet at each station to be sure the right parts--whether power windows or a heater--went on the right car.
Why Should Owners and Shoppers Care About It?
A build sheet is an unimpeachable record of how a car left the factory. Used-car buyers lean on it to verify that a claimed Rallye suspension or leather bucket seats were actually installed in the car originally. Owners use it to order the correct brake shoes or gear-oil additive for a limited-slip differential. Restorers rely on it for concours-level accuracy, and the document's presence can lift a vintage Chrysler's resale value because it authenticates the vehicle in a way an aftermarket window sticker never can.
What Details Does a Chrysler Build Sheet Reveal?
Historically the sheet listed body and interior colors, engine and transmission codes, axle ratio, and every factory option--often written as a string of letters and numbers meaningful only to Mopar insiders. Modern electronic records add plain-language descriptions. Whether the car carried power seats in 1969 or adaptive cruise control in 2023, the build sheet records it.
Where Might the Original Sheet Be Hiding in a Classic Chrysler?
Chasing an original broadcast sheet often feels like a treasure hunt because locations vary by plant. Many owners strike gold by removing the rear seat cushions, where build sheets were frequently stuffed into the springs. Others discover them beneath front buckets, taped to the glove-box liner, under the carpet on the driver's side or resting atop the gas tank. Rarer finds emerge from door panels, inside headliners or behind the package tray. Patience--and a gentle touch with decades-old paper--pays off.
How Do I Get the Build Information for a Modern Chrysler?
Today a 17-digit VIN is the only tool you need. The iSeeCars Build Sheet by VIN tool returns a digital record in seconds. Chrysler's Customer Assistance Center will also email the data on request, and many dealerships can print an equipment list straight from Stellantis' internal network. Cars built before the late 1990s may require direct contact with historical services or specialized archives, as their records are not always online.
Build Sheet Versus Window Sticker: What's the Real Difference?
The broadcast sheet was written for factory use and brims with internal codes that track each bolt and trim clip. The window sticker--legally called the Monroney label--is designed for consumers and translates key facts into plain English: price, standard gear, optional packages, fuel economy and safety ratings. The build sheet is the engineer's logbook; the window sticker is the showroom resume.
How Do I Decode a Chrysler Build Sheet?
Reading a paper sheet from the muscle-car era means translating Chrysler's internal shorthand. Owners match the VIN, then consult Mopar decoding guides, enthusiast forums or reference books by experts such as Galen Govier to parse paint codes, trim abbreviations and option groups. Modern electronic sheets mix any remaining codes with clear descriptions, so most owners can read them line by line without outside help. Either way, the process confirms drivetrain, colors, interior trim and every factory-installed option.
How Have Build Sheets Evolved Over the Years?
Chrysler's earliest sheets were single or multi-page documents printed on fragile paper and clipped to the car as it crept along the line. With the rise of computer systems, those pages gave way to digital records stored in manufacturer databases. Content expanded as vehicles grew more complex: cryptic codes now appear alongside full descriptions, and data once meant solely for assembly purposes has been reframed for owners. The shift from paper to pixels mirrors broader advances in automotive data management.
Where Can I Learn More About Historical Chrysler Build Sheets?
Dedicated Mopar forums host owners who trade scanned sheets and share decoding tips. Printed guides--most famously the "White Books" published by Galen Govier--compile exhaustive code lists with historical context. For vehicles built between 1930 and 1967, Stellantis Historical Services can, with proof of ownership, supply photocopies of original build records. Together these resources offer the clearest window into a Chrysler's past.
