These were printed for Canadian cars. And of course you wouldn't find a US sheet in a Canadian car. ![]() Even if you had an IBM or whatever printer from the past, good luck making it work unless you have one of these. Sorry to ask so many questions.I'm not looking at reproducing anything just trying to find out what the canadian ones looked like since I have never seen one in all the cars I parted any model other than that strips I refer to under the seat maybe 2 1/2 by 6" with some codes on it. Also the reason I asked about the US sheets in the canadian cars I thought all ls-6's were made in the US and shipped up here so would they have had the Us build sheets. There is a black ls-6 up here canadian car which the guy keeps swaring the build sheet he has was found in the car but it is like I would find in a us car.He would also be the type to pay the 1100 for a fake. The help is appreciated ![]() |

Hey Joe,
Heres a couple examples of the Canadian buildsheets I have pulled from cars down here. They were all St. Therese built. I think the cars with the small strips were Oshawa built,(number 1 for 7th vin character). Steve ![]() ![]()

When I said Canadian printed buildsheet, I mean the car was build in Canada. So as you mentioned, if I ordered a LS6 and it was shipped to Canada then, yes it would have a buildsheet from the US plant. I'm not sure if they looked different if the car was exported to Canada. I wouldn't go to that trouble if I made the decision about the build sheet form number.
I have a couple of small sheets from a 70 SS396/350 Canadian car, but it's not a build sheet that I'll post later. Mmm, those sheets above look familiar to the blanks I have when I used to print them. I still remember aging paper in the oven for a public school project. |

I worked in the GM print area when I started working for GM and one of the forms I printed were build sheets on XXX brand XXX printers (XXX denotes printer brand and type of printer). All print files were created on 6250 BPI tapes created on 3420 mainframe tape drives (which we still have in storage) then they were brought to me to print. My job was to make sure the correct font print band was used and that the 1st line of the print record started in the correct place on the form and that the RPO codes were lined up in their respective boxes. We printed everything for GM including Cheques. I didn't specify the printer information for the obvious reasons. [/ QUOTE ] I'm confused ![]() ![]() |

It's about time they came out with these buildsheets--I've got a '70 buick that I was thinking of dropping a 454 in and just needed some docs to show it was a 1 off LS6/B................. [/ QUOTE ] Joe you could probably get a million bucks for that ![]()
