Another data decode question

Ok, I tried to use Mil1ion's website to decode my data plate but it is for 77-79. i have a 76. I noticed that
mattsbox99 said to post the numbers and someone would help me with them so here they are:

WB-133
COLOR-E
GVW-F261
BODY-MR4
TRANS-G
AXEL-24J

I was wondering if anyone could help me decode the fender tag numbers also? I know some of them may be the same as the data plate like color and W/B. Here they are as close as I an get them to order they appear:

YX 133 BDY 4NAR
E MLD EXP
X J 7 CAB

Thanks and if anyone has any other websites that would be helpful in restoring the old gal I have I would like to have the addresses.

I don't HATE anything.

I just think it is a little weird that you can Mix & Match on the de-coder.

Like..... having a 360 in a 79 P/U.

Try it !

What do you mean by mix and match Dennis? Are you talking about the trans and axle codes selection?

Sorry Dennis maybe hate was too strong a word,I know you don't like that site.

Mil1ion I can't figure out how to post pics right to this page so I added a pic of the door tag in my gallery. As far as I can tell, the color that the truck is now is the original color. I have no idea what color Nectarine is. Thanks for the info so far.

Opps..... sorry about the spelling-typo.
