Default Found 1980 Build Sheet!

I recently started the interior project on my '80 and during the removal of the carpet, I discovered the car's build sheet under the carpet underlay material in the canter of the rear cargo area. Pretty cool document with lots of numbers (codes). She was born in St. Louis and shipped to Los Angeles, California. It's in great shape and I will be framing it. I took pictures of it, but I'm not familiar on how to post the pics.

Would have been nice if they would have put them ALL in the same location. Oh well, I guess we can't have everything.
