Hi Guys - Just bought a very original 1968 GTX from an estate sale. I looked quickly for a buildsheet but couldn't find one under the rear seat - it's an LA built car and I remember reading somewhere that LA built cars didn't get buildsheets left in them for some reason - I may be thinking of E-Bodies only, not sure.

Any help will be appreciated - thanks!

Check these places too;

Taped to the back side / top of the glove box insert.
Under the front bucket seats in the springs
Inside the bucket seat backs
Under the package tray (speaker shelf)
Under the carpet

Most of the 1970 LA broadcast sheets I have heard of so far have been under the carpet or under the front seat bottom.

Best of luck!

Thanks Guys -

Barry, you're everywhere! We emailed earlier today.

I'll be getting the car next week, it'll be fun to dig into it.
