I have
heard of build sheets found in the area above the headliner.
I haven't found this, only heard of it
happening.

Known build sheet locations always seem to be talked about
as above or below the glove box, stuffed in or under the seat cushions (esp.
rear), under carpet or occasionally in the trunk. These if anything
at all is to be found and most of the time nothing is anywhere on FL cars.
I want to add a place to look to this list.
I did an inspection on a '57 Chrysler 300C that was one of
the factory stick shift cars that had 23K miles at the time. While on a
creeper under the car I found the IBM card from which the car was built
well-taped to the crossmember above the rear axle to which the upper mount of
the rear shocks was attached. The card was taped between the shock mounts
with the tape wrapping the crossmember so it had to be put there before the body
was assembled to the chassis.
Has anyone else found anything in this location? The
card wouldn't last in any wet climate but this car was in El Paso and that card
did last well over 40 years. Anyone find just the tape?
It did cross my mind that perhaps just the uncommon, unusual order cars like
this 390HP race car needed something the assembly workers would see as sort of a
"heads-up" - pay attention as you bolt this car together.
