Re: Build sheets (is laminating a good idea)?
You could scan it and then print it on a nice color printer then laminate it.
The quality of scanners and printers these days is pretty impressive. If you dont own a scanner/printer im sure a Kwik Kopy or similar store will do it for a small price and they can probably laminate it too.

Re: Build sheets (is laminating a good idea)?
Laminating it would actually be permanent... it would melt the plastic to the build sheet or adhesive it to the build sheet...

The plastic melts into the upper layers of the document. If you remember being 17 and trying to take your driver's license out of the lamination to change the date so you looked older, you will know what I mean. Nowadays all of us are trying to alter them to look younger.

Re: Build sheets (is laminating a good idea)?
My 68 GTO build sheet was in the floor (of the car) and was in a bunch of pieces and half destroyed...
I used archival illustration board and an archival glue and pieced it back together as best as possible...  The 2 I found in the Lemans parts car I bought were perfect... of course!
