Default Canadian build sheets

Does anyone know if GM Canada can get build sheets back as far as 71 to see what the original options were?

I believe so, I got the build sheet for my 79. Its GM vintage Vehicle Services vintagevehicleservices.com or you can call 1-888-467-6853 or outside of Canada 1-905-440-7636 or 1-905 440-7618. If I remember correctly they'll charge you somewhere around $30 to give you a list of all the options your car was ordered with.

That looks like what plant engineers called a run sheet but looks fuzzy. What year Car...nevermind see its a 76? Shows build units in a columnar report. The run sheet was what plant workers used rather than the landscape style buildsheet we typically see or that was attached to the gas tank.

These are rare...this is first one I've seen. Thanks for sharing!

That's really nice, hope mine turns out to be a Canadian car as the title search only went back to 1975. Fingers crossed.

That's awesome! I actually remember Golden Mile motors. Probable been gone for 30 years.

Edit: totally wrong, Golden Mile Chevrolet from 1953 to 2007.

I do remember Golden Mile Motors. I'm thinking it was on Kingston Road? Eglington Ave?

That's a nice piece of documentation but its closer to the retail window sticker than a build sheet. Build sheets include production information, data and numbers.

My 72 LT-1 was also originally sold at Golden Mile. It has some stickers on the windshield that I have always been curious about. Stock number maybe?

Yup ... right down the street from the "Scarborough Kissing Factory". Golden Mile was right next to the GM Van Plant, a favorite high school field trip. My brother bought an 85 Corvette right out of the Golden Mile show room and if I remember Mr. Roundtree the owner, had a 53 sitting out front of his house for the longest time.

Hmmmm......seems we have a few former Scarborough residents on here!

How about the "famous" Willison swinging lady sign just down the street from Golden Mile?!?!



Keeping this thread on topic, my car was also an original Canadian car, and I bought the same documentation from GM Canada. My car was originally sold at North York Chev Olds, which is at Yonge/Steeles. When I got the documentation, I went to the dealership to search their records archives, but we couldn't find anything about my car.

LOL I played hockey for Paul Willisons Valients as a youth, the swinging lady was never without her season appropriate attire!

So Petes no more, or just bad weather?

One thing that the document said is that the key codes should still be available.
