Does anyone know if someone is reproducing the owners manual envelope that came in the glove box. We have the original but it is badly worn and need to replace it. TIA.

Ground Up has them. Probably others as well.

I have the originals for my '70 Chevelle AND my '69 Nova. Both are clear plastic.

Many dealerships used a car paper wallet...approx. 6" x 10" that would hold the owners manual, invoice, warranty info, etc. They typically had the dealers name and car line logos...dealers still use them today.

I would shy away from the reproductions being that originals are often found on ebay.

This is the one I am looking for. I will check ebay (duh!) and see if there are any there. Thanks

Rick, here is a link to a folder that Classic has available. I actually sell these folders to some of my dealer clients...they are available blank. So, you could actually re-create the copy for a particular dealership and imprint on the blank folder. Just a thought...let me know if I can help.
