Eric has been extremely helpful with information that shaped this correctly for the C3 market. I had another vendor say he was impressed with the coil binder that was an Eric recommendation.
 
I set up a buildsheet blog as well. I get common questions from various sources and thought it might be instructive for readers or enthusiasts have one source where it would serve as a FAQ type source.

The model year 1973 was the first year the GMAD buildsheet (General Motors Assembly Division) used the landscape style buildsheet for the Corvette. We know that 1973 was the year we see the GMAD manifest glued to gas tanks. Before 1973, Corvette assembly was under the management of the Chevrolet Motor Division.

I have been following this thread with great interest. It Appears that Tom has done an excellent job of putting the information together that is not available from GM.Thumbs Up  Who knew that 40+ years later that anybody would care anything about these cars.

Unfortunately, the book won't do much good for my 72Unhappy but I did find the build sheet on top of my tank and it is in very good (readable) condition.Big smile  I have removed and preserved it.
