Other year Shark('68-'82) paperwork has also been found, and is being offered to the current owners. You may need to show proof of ownership to get this stuff, and there may be a cost involved. All of this info/paperwork is being offered by fellow NCRS members....I'm just trying to facilitate the reunion.

"Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comforting to cry in a CORVETTE than in a Kia"

I'm closer than you Joel (I've got 21006 and 21010 is listed). Close, but no cigar. Thankfully, I have the actual build sheet from the tank, but there are unreadable portions. Still interested in anything that comes up as available. Thanks for sharing!

______________

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Kinda close too...have 17357

reading what you have in red would I be able to get one for my 77? I have the dealer invoice would their be more info on the tank sticker or build sheet?

Hey Joel, who do we need to contact about the other years like my 72?

He has info(build sheets) on these '76 VIN#s:

IF your VIN matches any of these, please P/M me, and I'll put you in touch with the feller.

And....I will not facilitate anything unless you ARE the current owner of the vehicle. Not bein a jerk...just need to protect the info. AS I said before, he will prolly need some verification of current ownership, and there MAY be a cost involved(from him...not me). I hope he can reunite some paperwork for some of our C3VR members!

Bob, so far, there are only a couple of sheets or other paperwork available for the '77 year. I'll check and see if your's is there. The tank sticker will have a little more detail than the window sticker. The dealer can add stuff(options, accessories) that would not be on the build sheet.

Fred....doesn't look like your's is listed....

The plot thickens now....apparently, the feller that had these sheets says he gave MOST of them to another feller. The other feller denies having any of the build sheets, but whatever he did get from the first feller is going into the NCM archives. The first feller still has some of the early stuff...'68-'72, iirc.

"Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comforting to cry in a CORVETTE than in a Kia"

Do you suppose the first feller would depart with any of the numbers for 1969 that he has?

Dealer invoices(ONLY) from a dealer in Boston, Mass.:
00360 02725 02730 04796 04901 005309 07981 09025 09315 10825 10836 12995 14153 18093 18824 25981 26098 26150 29832 30713 31974 33881

If you have '69 VIN #18488, the original owner has the POP, window sticker, and bill of sale. Or, if you have VIN #22117, the original owner has the invoice, and Owner's Card.

And...someone else has "various types of documentation" on these '69 VINs:
00988, 02935, 06993, 11869, 12921, 13155, 14234, 14653, 16189, 17712, 20773, 21006, 22122, 25693, 28968, 30310, 30637, 31886, 32222, 33690, 35773, 37214, 37697, 38141

Unless....they have ALL given the stuff to the NCM, and neglected to tell anyone....

"Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comforting to cry in a CORVETTE than in a Kia"

Thanks for looking.

None of those match mine which is 23562 in case anyone has any info, or the original block laying around.

I wonder what the NCM does with the info and papers they get? 

Jim

The ORIGINAL intent of the NCM was to have a place to catalog/archive the old documents like this. As it turned out, the Archives are JUST now being built there. GM committed to handing over a TON of documents and info to the NCM when it was first conceived, but there was never any place to actually house the archives. Many years later, the archives are finally getting done, and GM, and other contributors are giving what they have.
The build sheets that are being offered in this thread are not really a part of that, but some may wind up there if they(the folks that have the documents) don't find them a home before then. The NCRS TDB recently created a place on the board for folks with paperwork, or parts from the older cars to post what they have, in hopes of finding the current owners, and re-uniting said paperwork/parts with the cars they belong to.
Once the NCM takes possession of stuff like that, and gets it cataloged, it will be available(for viewing) to the public...

"Money can't buy happiness -- but somehow it's more comforting to cry in a CORVETTE than in a Kia"

This would make a great study of "early" GMAD style buildsheets for 1974 owners and capturing many codes unique to 1974 that may be missing among 1974 code data bases.

i wish i could find my vin#37958,i tryed NCRS but no joy

Appreciate any insight or information on my  '68 Rally Red Roadster VIN: 194678S419264.

God  Bless, rick

Sorry Rick...I'm not seeing that VIN listed. Like everyone else...I can find cars a few numbers from yours, but not YOURS!

I check every once and a while, since more get posted every day, it seems. Ya never know...all of ours may show up some day.

______________

God  Bless, rick

I do not have a list personally, but there is a section on the NCRS Tech Discussion Board specifically for folks with paperwork for other cars to list it. I check it every now and then to see what's new.....still hoping to find something on my '74. I have the ownership info back to the original owner, but he's not interested in talking to me about the car, so I can't get anything from him.

The NCRS TDB is for members only, tho you can view a lot of it as a "Guest" for 30 days. Membership in NCRS will get you a lot more than just access to the TDB....well worth the admission price, imho.

You're probably right, it's just with NCM, NCCC, Local Club, etc fees you keep laying out money for all these corvette associated sources.

Close - according to the plate, the code is K26 - which I understand June 26.

______________

June 26th it is! Just proves that the build date is only "approximate", and the "Birthday Book" isn't always correct, even tho we know it is just an educated guess, going by production records, and other info.
Thanks for posting the trim tag, too.

btw...that's the same color as my '74.

I like your Texas-sized view.  Very nice ride - looks like a lot of fun and gives me hope.  This is my first corvette - I have a lot to learn, but I'm really having a good time (so far).  Got the body off and am starting on the frame as soon as I get the engine pulled.  Since the engine block is the only thing that is not original, I'm struggling to decide where to go once I get to the point of no return on colors - both interior and exterior.  At least I have some time.

______________

Wow! Is that what a trim tag is supposed to look like!?  Mine was a mess, having been painted around multiple times.

Adam, on your '79, the trim tag WAS painted to begin with...I think they started doing that in '77 or '78. The older cars had the tag installed after the body was painted, but before final assembly. The later cars had the tag installed before paint.

And you are correct....that IS a really nice trim tag!! Most of them by now are all scratched up from cleaning, and from being painted over after the fact.

I have a "68". Would they have any listing on the build sheet for my car. I see they had replaced the tank. I contacted the previous owner you told me he never looked for the build sheet when he changed the tank.

I was wondering if there is any info regarding my '75.

VIN 1Z37J5S42507

C29 means March 29th ?

The only thing I know is that it came to Brazil in 2012.

Thanks.

God  Bless, rick

Actually, a C29 date would mean December 29, 1974 build date, which was a Sunday. Check your code carefully....are you sure it is not a "G", instead of a "C"? G29 would be April 29, 1975.

The last 6 #s will be needed to check for any paperwork I could find.

Yup...the engine date code is April 23rd(V0423), so that would make it perfect for the April 29(G29) body build date.

As a side note, your car(body) was built on my 16th birthday!

I am a registered archivist with GM and can get you the dealer invoice and then turn it into the window sticker if you would like.  Most tank sticker are in such bad shape that you can't read them.  This is the real deal from GM archives.  I charge $120 for both of these doc's and I include the last copy of the engineering manual for the build out of your car.  (I make very little from this assembly since I must pay fees for both as well)  I just need your VIN.
