I bought my 1970 Chevelle SS 454 4spd. in 1978 and it currently has 68k original miles on it. I only have a corner of the build sheet and since DNA testing is yet impossible on inanimate objects lol, how can I go about documenting this car? Is there any way to get a copy of the original build sheet?

Hey John...Thats a long time to own it. There isn't any way to get a copy of your cars build sheet. Where did you find the one you have? There may be another one in the car somewhere. Good luck.

The build sheets were attached to major componets as they came together on the assembly line. Once the part was assembled the build sheets were garbage. Sometimes they found there way into seat backs, under carpet, on top of gas tanks and just about every other nook and cranny in the cars. Sometimes they were even trown in a trash can where they belonged, so because some workers were lazy some of us have the holy grail of documentation for our cars. Good luck on finding another, more complete one.
