I went through the scraps of my broadcast sheet I found after the mouse got to it. I got lucky and some of the build and sales codes are legible, including the steering wheel and wheels! So I need some help figuring out these codes. Thanks guys.

Line 9 (Green):

Are you sure the wheel code in line 4 is 79? The 3 in "wheels" on line 12 would indicate W23, 14x5.5 road wheels (magnum 500), but the line 4 code should be 74 for this wheel (part #2944474).
Pwr steering 7 = S77 (coded for power steering)
1 in steering wheel = S81

I'm dead certain its a 9 and not a 4. I had a mag light on it making sure and it's a 9. I'll recheck it

Any chance you have an options price list for 1971?

I have several price lists for 71. What are you looking for?
Looking at photo's you'd previously posted of your car, the steering wheel you have is correct for the S81 code. Your car looks like it hadn't had a lot changed over the years. Make sure you take a lot of photos during teardown. They'll be valuable to you if you're trying to restore it back to original.

I'm looking for any information you can provide. I've probably gone through google about 15 times by now and haven't found much as far as prices or anything really.
I've been doing a lot of research into all the numbers on the car. The only things that did not come with the car are the radiator, carb, and the window and roof drip rail molding trim is missing. Luckily a buddy of mine gave me a practically brand new radiator that has the number 3443951. It came from a 1971 C-body with a 383 and air conditioning. It's about as close as I'm probably going to get until I get really lucky and find a numbers one. It also has a carter competition series carb that is a 750cfm and I took the nameplate off and it looks identical to the factory carter AVS carb.
Other than those few things, everything I looked at on the car is correct and origional. Now that I know what wheels it came with, I've decided to do a near stock factory restoration on her. Only change I'll make is a cam swap to give back the 35+ hp it lost in 71' and put a gull wing and chin spoilers on. Other than that, I feel like god gave me a good sign on those few scraps of my sheet. You'll see also the carpet coded paper that was under my carpet. Still have yet to figure out why I have two bullet holes in my passenger rear floor board and a pamphlet from the Los Angeles Sherrif's Department
