Another build sheet?
I was at a car show yesterday and a fellow stopped to talk to me about my Vette. He proceeded to tell me that sometimes they put the build sheet under the carpet under/behind the seat.
Anyone ever heard this, or found one there?

I've read stories here on the forum of guys finding their build sheet in places like behind the carpet, undre the seats, rolled up behind the dash/glove box. I've never found one this way but then I've only looked on two '82s and both where just above the tank like mine here.

Usually the ones found in the car are the sheet 7 of the Corvette Order Copy document. This sheet lists the cars information in a different format. There have been '70, '71 & '72 owners that have found sheets in their cars, in various locations.

My plates are on my avatar, same on the car...
Was your car there? There really weren't a lot of Corvettes. Very custom C5, another black custom '58, yellow '66 (nice), nice red 74 or 75 roadster, a red '61, a few others. Not sure I saw a '73.
I'll probably bring the '69 next year, assuming it's done.

Thats where I found the build sheet on my 77. I was disappointed when I dropped the fuel tank and found no evidence of a sheet on it but when I tore the interior out there it was and in pretty good shape also.

I enjoyed myself. I won Best Corvette, which means they must not have looked that closely.

my vette was there... Just not in the show. My white one is pretty much a driver, and supposedly has the original paint which I find hard to believe.. It's in all original condition and its showing its age. So, I parked it in a parking lot next to A1 locks.. It will be a while til the white '73 sees a show.. I've got big plans for my yellow '73, so I try not to spend too much money on the white one until the yellow ones done...
But, your right as for corvettes being there.. There wasn't much. I even commented to my dad about that. I know of atleast 10-15 C3's in our area and not even one of them were there!

Multi '73s, eh? I had a couple '73s at a time once a few years ago, loved them.
I guess I'd better knock off the thread hijack!
