Decal locations on a 69 500

[C500]

Hey guys, a couple questions:
Which side does the jacking instructions decal go inside the trunk?
Which side on the radiator support does the yellow decal go?
Does the anti-rattle felt for the Jack go on the top at the wheel housing or bottom on truck floor bracket?
Is the spare wheel supposed to be black or body color? Original wheels unknown.
Car is a 440, F8 green.

Nobody can help? What's happened to the members on this site 😳

You didn't say what car, maybe you did in earlier posts.   I know there are lots of true knowledge experts on this site, but I thought I could start things off.   So I answered as per David Wise's book for generic 69 and a couple of survivor cars that I know including one of mine.

Coolant yellow decal on radiator support...per David Wise: "There is no exact position for the location of this label".   I have normally seen it centered but to the drivers side.   I had a survivor 69 Superbee once and it was drivers side, off center, it was a St. Louis build.  I included a pic of an A12 5600 mile survivor.  Remember that A12's were Lynch Road built.   My C500 leans passenger side as restored, with the late David Patik's help, but a companion C500 restored at the same time was drivers side.

Jacking instructions...Per David Wise again..."the location may vary from car to car".    In his book the Daytona has it on both side of the trunk given the two decals.   On normal cars, I have always seen it seemingly randomly installed on the passenger side of the trunk lid partly overlapping one of the trunk structural bumps pressed in to the inner skin.   I included two pics of survivor A12 cars from the Lift Off Hood forum archives.   They are not always square to vertical.

The felt is wheel well

On the spare wheel...here is David Wise again for 1968/69..."Full wheel covers or road wheels have a black spare.  Hubcap cars have body color wheels."   For 1970 they were semi-gloss black.

I would assume all of these are answered somewhere in the Hemigeno Daytona restoration posts.

Good luck!

 69 antifreeze decal can be anywhere inbetween the two points  in first picture , but mainly  in the location shown
second picture if an early SPD  69 charger  , & sold in a warm climate , will have this smaller 180 degree thermostat decale in location shown

FWIW
as we know all 69 Charger 500s were assembled at assembly plant (B)  Hamtramck

 on all the 69  unrestored  chargers ive seen   built a the St Louis ( G Assembly  plant)   , the jack decale  is not in the same location as hamtramck cars its on the upper right side
