fencepost Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 If you have a build card how did you pay? Did you send a UK cheque or money order and if so where did you get it. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony B Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Worth doing it international recorded delivery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beepbeep Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 The only way is to send cash dollars, they don't accept UK cheques and there's no such thing as an international money order any more. You can send it signed for and tracked but chances are it won't be signed for and it'll cost you £9 to send £16. Not worth the expense IMO. Just send the cash and put it in a card in an envelope.

Chris Warne Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Thought about doing this but never got round to it. What's the procedure/address to get the build card? Thanks in advance.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoranWC51 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Here you go: If you wish to send a request, please include your full name and return address (a letter will do). Also, please include the make, model and year of your automobile. If you are requesting a Build Record you must include your VIN Number . Please send your inquiry to: Attn: Historical Information DAIMLER CHRYSLER Corporate Historical Collection CIMS 410-11-21 12501 Chrysler Freeway Detroit MI, 48288 USA Note: This only applies to U.S. built 1930 - 1954 Dodge and Plymouth trucks! Cost for trucks is $25.00 USD and requires your truck's factory serial number (on frame). Also needed is a copy of your title or Bill of Sale. (VIN number on the door or chasis frame, not the engine block serial number.) You should have the photostat copy of your build card in a couple of weeks. Note that the cards are kept on micro fische, i.e. micro photo, form, so the quality of the copy is not brilliant. Many put their copy into a photo program, like Photoshop, and invert the image, which sometimes makes it easier to read. Good luck, Chris, Goran N Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon_M Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'd just like to reinforce the point that you do need to prove ownership of the vehicle, with a copy of either; Bill of Sale in your name Title document. ... or the like. I think I used the UK C&E 386 document, showing chassis number and import duty paid, on one truck that I didn't actually have a receipt for.

Chris Warne Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Thanks guys, that's great. I take it a photocopy of the V5 UK registration document will suffice as proof of ownership. I'll get on it today, thanks again for your help. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony B Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'd send a copy of V5 a copy of insurance and a few pictures of the vehicle, they always like pictures. Have you e mailed? I did and they were very helpful, even checked that the record was there before I sent money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
