Default Glove box documents for a 79

I have the ncrs judging guide but does anyone have what came in the glove box new?
i have the owners manual but that’s about it. Was there generic gm manuals across say 1979?
thanks.

This is the list from the 75-77 TIMJG 3rd edition and would be relatively close to that for the 78-79 model years

I have many on the list hunt4cleanair provided for my 77 including the clear plastic envelope pouch the owners manual came in, not scanned.
My cars Dealer Invoice estimated delivery date was 7/26/77
The date signed on the customer copy of the New Vehicle Inspection Procedure sheet is 7/26/77...
One VIN sticker from the Warranty sheet placed on the passengers side window is missing, it was placed on the Warranty Booklet at some point, maybe when original owner took position of car on 8/18/77...
My luggage rack was Dealer Installed but was included on the Dealer invoice so roof panel instructions were also included in my packet.
The Firestone Warranty Card part number is 9590403 for 1977.
The Aluminum Wheel Maintenance sheet is part number 371696 dated 5/6/75.
The Sport Mirror and Wiper Switch instructions is 2 sided and slid around driver side sun visor.
Also included was the Washington State Automotive Repair Regulations sheet.

I also noticed on the customer copy of the New Vehicle Inspection Procedure sheet the transmission number B7K01D is stamped on the fluid pan of my TH350.
I don't know when that stamp was made or what it means?

Very nice collection. By any chance do you have the 3rd edition of the NCRS TIMJG? I would be curious how your list reconciles with the images we included in it.

We could not figure out if the luggage rack V54, was dealer installed but assumed so and as you note came with instruction sheet. We included it in the manual. We spent quite a bit of time with V54 and how best to present. I would also assume...t-top bags were not included!

Notice the Warranty information booklet, one of the VIN stickers (GM called them labels) was applied to the Warranty booklet...
Also see Dealers Key Ring in that photo,
I don't know if that would have been the style back in 1979 so don't get to hung up on that.
My car was ordered and delivered to one local dealer and sold by another local dealer, maybe it was one of those you have what we want kinda trades?
Anyways, I have a couple of that style of key rings with the Dealers info on them, I bought my 77 in 1983-84 ish time period...
Here is a photo of both sides...

I have that 79 dealer sales brochure pictured top left hand corner, have not looked at it in years but as I remember it is in real good condition, it's yours if you want it, $10.00 to cover the mailing cost.
