Title: Build Sheet in '67 Lordstown Car?
Post by: keith k on August 06, 2007, 02:19:35 AM
Hi all,
I'm wondering if the Lordstown plant typically left build sheets in cars?  And if so, where might my odds be best of finding it?

My car is a low mileage '67 convertible that I think has probably never been taken apart...

Lordstown didnt make Camaros. Van Nuys (Los Angeles) and Norwood plants did. I take it you may mean Van Nuys.

I know it varied from plant to plant. Buildsheets are not commonly found on first gen Camaros except for 69 Van Nuys built cars, which had the on top of the gas tank periodically.

Ah, You are correct.... it was built at Norwood (N in the VIN...).  I am not sure why I thought Lordstown (maybe because a '67 Firebird I once owned was built there I think... did they build Firebirds there?).

So Norwood Camaros don't typically have build sheets hiding in them then?

Nope, however there are Norwood build sheets out there, but they are a rare bird.

So where does everyone get all of their information from?  I have a body tag and a VIN, but those don't get me all the goodies.  Some of these guys know what their original interior options were and all kinds of neat details.  How do they find this stuff?
