Power Wagon VIN Decoder

Can anybody recommend a good VIN decode site for my 1975 Power Wagon? I can't find any with any accurate info on this truck. Thanks

So this is an old post. I have the book, so I just wanted to be helpful to those who may need it later.


I have an old Service Manual that I got when I was in the military. The person in charge of the T.O.'s and manuals was going to through this out, but he knew I had an old Dodge truck and offered to give it to me instead of toss it. I can give you what it shows. My computer had died today, so I am using the computer in the kids room (no scanner). I'll just type it out for you.
