So when I was behind my dash removing my speedometer today guess what was tucked up in there?
A yellowed, dirty folded up piece of paper.
I almost tossed it out before seeing what is was...
Date: 69/09/19
Corvette Order Copy
Standard Trim
350-HP Turbo-Jet v8
Positraction axle ratio 3.36
4-speed transmission
white stripe tires
am/fm pushbutton radio
soft-ray tinted glass
power steering
Monza Red paint
It's my Corvette's birth certificate!
Why was it hiding in my dash to deteriorate instead of being proudly displayed in a frame by the previous owner?
Hi =D,
Many, many cars had a copy tucked between the tachometer and speedometer, or behind the radio. Often the ones behind the radio are missing because so many cars have had the radio changed.
NICE FIND!!!!
Regards,
Alan
Congrats, I am lucky enough to have the build sheet from behind the dash, as well as the one from the gas tank....about 10% of the cars have the one behind the tach/speedo. put it in one of those acid free photo album books.
