1961 Impala bubbletop Buildsheets????????
 
I just bought a 1961 impala bubbletop very original new mexico car. The color is (925)Corna Cream/white with (865)Fawn beige interior. Its a numbers matching 348 4 barrel car. Any idea if these cars had buildsheets like the later 60's chevys and if so where are they commonly found in the interiors???? I havent even picked the car up yet took look. Whos the vintage Impala guy to talk to?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

'61 Sport Coupes may typically have build sheets in the rear seat back springs or glued on top of the instrument cluster (above the speedo). You can reach up there and feel if there is paper there.

I've found them on top of the inner glove box liner and under the back seat on these early Sixties Chevys. They're actually pretty hard to decipher compared to the ones that cam out later on in the Sixties. The bottom line of your firewall cowl tag (ACC.) may have a little bit of info too.

Thank you Guys!!! How complete are buildsheets of this era? Do they list anything more than Job Codes, Vin#, Color and Trim???

Yes, they have boxes for engine, trans and other options.
