Two build sheets in my truck, neither match
Checking out behind my seat I see two build sheets. The seat is already torn up, so I decided to see what these were all about.
It appears that neither are from this truck originally, but for all I know it could. Click for the full size. I left them huge so everything can be easily read (well, as easily as can be for the condition) This build sheet looks like it's from a local truck. I can make out "CE GARAGE" and "ROCK OREGON" which plugging in to google gives me an obituary from a guy in Pendleton who worked at a Maurice Garage. And Pilot Rock is just south of Pendleton a bit, so it makes sense. ![]() The truck this belongs to seems to have headed up to Poulsbo Washington. The address is a bit more legible, Lucky's something Garage in Poulsbo ![]() I love the history these sheets tell.

Re: Two build sheets in my truck, neither match
Thanks for posting those. I love 'em too.
Are the VINs/job sequence numbers close together on those two? Or totally random? K

By the way - here's what a "nice one" looks like...

Is there a VIN on these? That number is 1 digit too short to match the sequence number on my VIN. One of these pickups came with a 327. I love that engine. My '67 Camaro had one. Also had bucket seats! Funny that this came out of a bench. Based on the other's green vinyl option I'm guessing that build sheet belongs to the seat.

Re: Two build sheets in my truck, neither match
Interesting.
Yes - I think the VIN is in the upper right corner. Sounds like somebody got behind and just started jamming build sheets into the seat that was currently in front of them. K

If the second number is a 1, looks to be within 11K (just barely) of my pickup. Speaking of history, I read your the post linked in your signature about the Pontiacs. Very cool history you have with these. I wish I was sentimental when I got my first pickup. I owned a beautiful survivor SWB Bonanza from 1978. But, being young, stupid, and interested in going fast, I traded it for a smaller turbo car.
