Hope that helps, it is a rip if you go this route but hey it's a Corvette.
The build sheet is a very nice piece of documentation to have, especially for the Corvette enthusiast. However, the build sheet does not show the build date. Keep in mind that the build sheet is produced sometime prior to the build start and accompanies the vehicle down the assembly line. The printed date in the upper right hand corner of the build sheet is the proposed target production date, not the actual build date.

One of the best ways to find the actual build date is to have a dealer or one of the Forum members here like Sponge Vette who have access to GM's Vehicle Inquiry System (VIS) inquire the system for the build info. This portion of the VIS information will show the actual build date.

Hope this helps.
