What HamBone has is not the Dodge build sheet. It is something that may have build sheet data with it, but it is not the build sheet that Dodge issued.

Seven years as an engineer for Nissan. two as an engineer with a Tier 1 supplier, and several years in new auto sales speaking here.

HamBone, where did that data come form? Is that from a webiste or something like a car fax?

Mine was the exact same as yours except the part about the build dates is right in front of the actual build sheet.

However, my representative was named Matt, maybe that has something to do with it

Thanks for all the replies. Just got my truck out of storage and had a chance to look at the drivers door post as suggested by stewie01. Sure enough it indicates date of Manufacture as 11-93 C. I believe that translates to November, 1993, (my truck is a 94). Not sure what C stands for.
