According to this they were destroyed in a fire:
Q. How can I obtain a build sheet for a Corvette built in St. Louis?
A. We do not know. We have been told by General Motors that all records from the St. Louis Plant were destroyed in a fire after the Assembly Plant was re-located to Bowling Green in mid-1981.

Rest assured that your car is very unique. It is the only car with those specific colors and options that you presently own.
Don't worry about how 'rare' the car may be; just enjoy it for all the reasons that you bought it.
