Hello everyone! I just bought a good friends 1969 RS/SS Camaro. It was her mothers car and she aquired it after her mom died. I told her if she ever wants to sell it, hit me up. Well, she decided to sell it to me and I accepted her offer to purchase it. it has been garaged for the last 20 + years and she would start it and pull it out on nice days and wash ans wax it, then park it again. It has 30,483 original miles on it. Its beautiful. Typical 47 years worth of dirt, oil and grime underneath, but the body and interior are amazingly in great shape. I want to keep it stock and untouched. One thing I would like to do is locate the original broadcast sheet. I don't think there has been any reason for anyone to have removed it, but I have looked in the typical spots, like under both front seats, under the back seat, but only looking through the lower section of the seat without removing it. Also behind the back seat in the trunk area, but not removing the spare tire. Any help to locate this sheet would be great. Thanks everyone

 

The location was based on where the car was built so I think one plant put them under the back seat and the other put it on top of the gas tank. It is well documented which is which I just can't find the link. If this is a all original car it may be worth it to not touch anything and have it certified by an expert. If the expert finds it in it original location it may go a long way in the certification process.

There are a tons of "all original" car out the but there are far less certified ones. People spend a lot of money trying to trick pros to get certified.

 

Welcome, and ooh nice car! The build sheet wasn't a required part of the finished car. At the end of the assembly line, the worker had to get rid of the sheet. They either threw it in the garbage or stuffed it in the car, usually under the back seat. Corvettes of the same era had the build sheet taped to the gas tank, because they are full frame cars. Not so with the Camaro. If the build sheet is in the car, consider yourself lucky, not all cars got one for keeps.

 

Thanks for the info! Its a Los Angeles car

 

Thank you!! I will definitely post pics if it indeed has one!

 

Welcome, Sonny, and I agree, very nice '69.
Congrats on the buy - right place, right time.
Suggestion, if you do find a build sheet, you might consider having a document restoration service assist in the revival/maintaining the build sheet.
Hide it some place where sun does not shine on it and seal with a decissant bag in the envelope.


Nice ride. Enjoy your new journey.
