He should GIVE it to the current owner

There are dicks like that all over the place.

I agree total DB.

Geez what a complete a-hole.

The person holding the build sheet (for ransom) probably has heartburn/sellers remorse because he (likely) gave the car away in the 80's.
If I was the current owner of the car, I'd tell him to burn it (and save the images of the sheet and conversation for documentation purposes).
Complete dirt bag...

Complete dipshit 💩

What if current owner has a $250,000-$300,00 hemi superbird?
Worth it to him to buy it?

not a hemi sheet. 440-4 car

The circus is in town this week.

Question is did cars go for a premium back then with a sheet? Did he get that kind of money for the car when he chose to keep it? Or did he get a reduced price based on the market at the time? We really can’t ferret that out. Too many factors involved.

I’ve seen more than a few instances over the years where somebody has kept some sort of keepsake piece of a car like that. It’s one thing when the car is sold and that is accounted for. Another entirely if somebody suddenly loses sentimentality in favor of a payday.

Some people save stuff.I stil have the window sticker from my 69 Bee that I sold back in the 80s.That and have the rehistration for my 60 Dart D500 car that last drove on the 60s.

It is worth something, not $ 10K.

It looks like the exterior paint code is 999. Only a couple of ways to document that.

No. Just on principle alone. Not for 10k!

For Prosperity purposes

if I owned the car I would click and save the picture . and tell the seller to pound sand

Several years ago, I found the buildsheet to a 69 Hemi Roadrunner I used to own. Called the then owner and gave it to him.

I would bet the guy then still owns that car


PS, this bird was talked about back in 2010

Some people care little about "doing the right thing" and more about $$$. The piece of paper has little to no meaning to the person selling it other than $$$, unless he used to own the car.

As others have stated I am in the "give it to the owner" of the car category.

Ad says the guy sold the car in the 80s, so apparently he did own it at one point.

I am all for the give it to the owner idea. If I had a broadcast sheet for someone, I'd be excited to give it to them.

I'm not opposed to selling it to the owner, as the owner clearly benefits financially if he has the broadcast sheet for his Superbird. If he wants it badly enough, he'll be willing to pay for it. $10k? That price is ridiculous, and the current owner of the broadcast sheet will have it until he's dead. I have no idea what a reasonable price would be.

Identifying paper work belongs to the car and should be with it when sold.

Seller's name is Rick Sawyer - could that be Rick as in Richard, aka.......Dick ?

Right. This and the ridiculous price (IMO) really rub me wrong. Maybe he just found it in a mess of paperwork, but still $10k is obnoxious IMO.

Obviously the build sheet should have went with the car. Either he knowingly withheld it or just forgot to give it with the sale. Either way, the honest thing to do would be to return it to the owner of the car where it belongs.

i will only comment that i have been the nice guy MANY times in my life and at almost 70 I'm questioning the generosity as it has rarely be acknowledged or reciprocated. I try to not let those experiences change/guide me, but I have become a lot more cautious. 10K seems high but how much value will it add to the car? 1, 2, 5, 50K
The answer to that question IMO determines the value of the document. I'm not saying if it increases the value by X amount that is what should be paid but is should be a factor in deciding. As it is right now, it's useless to anyone except the current owner of the car
