    Verry cool, from a historical perspective.

    I dropped my gas tank today to enable me to trunk-mount my NOS bottle. I am replacing the gas line rubber pieces back there while I am at it.

    Lo and Behold, what have I found?

    Taped to the top of the tank, the build sheet.

    Ends up it was originally ordered by a Buick dealership in Fairfield CT, and was built in the Framingham, Mass plant.

    I couldnt believe it was still intact, considering the shape the car was in when I bought it.:beers2:

    Great find Ken! I have some build sheets already for my '72 - haven't dropped the gas tank yet to look for that one yet.

    That's cool Ken. How big of a shot are you planning on with the nitrous?

    Nice find! Big question- does the VIN match? They didn't always, so if it does you really got a nice piece of documentation there! :TU:

    I worked on the assembly line there in 1972.

    It was a cool place.
