That was one plain jane convertible! Not even a radio! Neat the sheet was found in an SS coupe. How close was it to your car? I checked my database and didn't have that car entered.

----Red Alert had a build sheet in the drivers bucket 5 numbers later than its serial number. It was for a regular Chevelle convert w/350/black buckets and AC if I remember correctly. We took a wild stab and figured that Red Alerts bucket seat was some how either damaged or made incorrectly and was put off to the side and then they took the next black bucket bucket seat that came down the line 5 cars later. Is that a plausible explanation???........Bill S

Bill, I think the more plausible answer to that is something like this. Unlike today when virtually every component is assigned to a specific car, back then I believe many parts such as interiors where put into and pulled from a "bank" when the part was called upon. There may have been several sets of black bucket seats in the bank when it came time to pull the seats for Red Alert and therefore got a buildsheet for a different car wrapped inside. I have actually found sheets from other cars and with very close VIN's to the cars I was working on, on several occasions so likely this is more often then not what may have happened.
