I would also love an update. With the way things are right now, I'm sure finding old build sheets is the last thing on the minds of upper management at GM.

Ignoring this market is pennywise and pound foolish, I think. They could charge $50 a pop for a package similar to the Pontiac one (which is $45 at the moment, if I recall) and people would pay for it. An easy money maker and a makes for cheap way for building your current and future customer base.

I feel $100 would not be out of line

In all honesty, $1000 would not be out of line. I'm certain there are a lot of people with very nice cars that would pay more than that even.

I agree with Tommy, just think if you have a real 435 hp vette but have no real paperwork with the car. I'm sure that however owns a car like that would pay a 1000 or more to prove what he has. I remember reading on the NCRS forum a couple of years ago about this subject and most over there while hopeful, are in agreement that it will never happen. They say that Art Armstrong conducted a similiar search for the records with GMs cooperation years before Jim with no luck. I hope that it will happen as I am tired of all the BS cars in the hobby and would separate the fact from fiction but I'm not holding my breath.

I have a 67 435 and a 60 big brake vette. Both real cars with no paperwork. I would gladly give $1000 a car for GM paperwork. Don't think it will happen though.
