Default Retrieving build sheet / dealer receipt

Hey there, is there any way to get a copy of the original build sheet, or the receipt from the dealership somehow?

I would love to have the information about where the car was sold, and what extras was put on it.

I googled, and found some threads in here with links to some websites that doesn't work anymore.

It's for a 78 Pace car.

No, those records don't exist. National Corvette Restorers Society (NCRS) offers a basic historic document service that can provide dealer code, dealer zone number, dealer name and dealer address (if available) and the date the car was produced.

Sometime after 2005 GM Media Archives stopped sending out the Dealer Invoices for certain year cars.
At the time you just filled out a form and a copy of the invoice was sent to you at no charge.
This is what I received from them in 2005 on my 1977.

Start here. I also have a 1978 and they did have a copy of the Dealer Invoice in their records. I did this last year, 2021. The dealer invoice has what you are looking for (what dealer, what options, date of build, date of ship, suggested pricing etc). You will get it in a matter of days via email in PDF format. Just follow the instructions on Ordering it.
