Ya know,
I bought my car with nothing on it.
Had to buy everything and put it together.
Can I create my own build sheet?

I have changed my crpets, put in new seats and looked all over my car for a buildsheet.  I cannot find one.  From what I understand there is little hope of finding one.  My vette was built in St Louis, before the fire!!!

Talking about buildsheets and talking about builders. Now I'm also a NCRS member and right in front of me (normally under my pillow) lies the Assembly Instruction Manual 1972. Page 209 'Fuel tank, supports & straps'; so no problem for a 72. OK, 72 is not 74 and I suggest you join NCRS (besides C3VR of course) and put this problem at their Forum.

My leaf spring broke on my '78 Silver Anniversary about 5 years ago. When it was taken down for replacement the build sheet was tucked between the spring and the body...and it was mostly legible.
