Where on the broadcast sheet would you find the original tire and wheel combination for a 1971 Roadrunner? I have my broadcast sheet and don't quite understand where to look for these items.
Thanks,
Ron

"W" codes, towards the bottom IIRC.

Your wheel codes are listed on the 4th line down from the top in the "wheels" section in the middle of the line. There are 3 boxes, Road (code for the wheels), Color (code for the paint color on the wheels), and Spare (code for the spare wheel). To the right of that is Wheel Cover (code for the wheel cover, hubcap, or trim ring). The tire code is listed in the second line down from the top, 4 from the left "T-U-W TIRES".

Thanks,
I found the correct boxes now. This is on my broadcast sheet; Wheels Road 36, Color TX9 (black I think) and Spare 00. What does the 36 and 00 indicate?

36 is the last two digits of the wheel part number, in this case 2944236 is a 14x5.5 stamped steel wheel. The 00 in the spare column indicates that the spare wheel is exactly the same as the other 4. TX9 means the wheels were painted black. You should either have full hub caps or dog dishes coded in the wheel cover column.

Eric -thanks for all the info. On line 4 in the wheel cover box is 50. Do you why there is another place for WH/Cov on line 11?
Thanks Again,
Ron

50 indicates part # 3461450. This is the number for poverty hubcaps, sometimes called dog dish caps.
The 5 lines at the top indicate part numbers, while the lines below are sales/order codes. Many times you will not see anything in the W section.
