Found my build sheet today

Not the one in the glove box, but the one they used to assemble the truck. Folded up and stuck in the springs in the seat bottom.

Nothing too interesting. Built at the Fremont, CA plant. Originally sent to a Tyrrell Chevrolet in Cheyenne, Wyoming (which still exists). Confirmed 2.73 rear end gear ( that detail was not on sticker in glove box).

Still cool to find. I found 2 in the Chevelle I restored a few years ago...

Came out in pieces, so I taped it back together...

Agreed. I have the original build sheets for my 72 and my 77. Currently can't find my folder with all the receipts and stuff for my 77. Starting to worry that my old man threw it out while I was on deployment.

Well done; I love that kind of stuff.

It's like finding the Dead Sea scrolls.
