Factory CHECK Sheets ?
I Have A 78 Pace Car--#636
It Has Factoy Check Sheets Numbered To The Car
Full Set, Not In Front Of Me But I Think 14 Sheets
Long Story Short, T Was Told The Guy That Order The Car Went And Watched It Be Built, New Someone At Corvette Got The Papers/if Got Caught You Would Be Fired The Story Goes
Do Think This Is True And If So Any Value
They Are The Only Ones I Have Ever Seen With Any Corvette
Just Wondering
Thanks

It should be right on top next to the gas filler neck. Mine is still there but I do not dare to try pulling it off and it would just crumble. I called and got a copy of my dealer invoice and that has all the info I needed/wanted to know.
Kinda sounds like your tank sticker is gone.

Hi Al, I've got the twin to your car and I can tell you mine was not on top of the fuel tank. It was HANGING between the backside of the fuel tank and the storage area right above the leaf spring. I found mine while changing out the rear leaf spring. It was hanging down attached by some type of glue, very dried out and fragile, I got most of it intact, it was fairly readable. My car only had 15k miles on it when I found it and was never exposed to rain or snow so it held up pretty well.
Corvette Museum will not have info on anything before 1981 all 1980 cars were built in St. Louis.

At one time you could get a copy of your build sheet FREE from GM, now I think there is a $50.00 fee. Contact Peggy at GM. Her email is peggy.vezina@gm.com.
