I finally removed the back seat bottom cushion in my 72 Riv, looking for the ever elusive document unicorn, the build sheet. No build sheet, but I found this attached to the bottom springs...
It could be on the back seat back. I’ve found a couple there. Also inside door panels on the big cars
1972 Riviera, built in Flint (they all were): drop the gas tank for the build sheet I see your trim code 688 on that piece of paper. And also A90 for the electric trunk release option from your window sticker. A01 is for your Soft Ray tinted glass H could be for the Flint plant or for your silver vinyl top.
I glade for you... I dont trust it when I see funny things like that Tweeker paint job under the hood.. Or that tag put in with screws.. Plus coming from that part of the county.. Everybody knows the 80% of the residents in Walla Walla come from there..
I found a 1978 silver dollar under the seat of the 77 LeSabre. It probably belonged to the first owner. Will be selling it with the car
That's a soft trim sheet to guide line workers on interior options. I saw it in person in 1972 at the framingham plant.
Lived in Framingham during second half of the eighties. The plant was just about to enter it's death spiral. They were trying to land the "dust buster van" meaning the Lumina APV/ Olds silhouette. Squabbling and internal struggles ensued and the van went to Tarrytown, NY instead, to best of my belief. Both plants - Framingham and Tarrytown eventually were shuttered. Also remember the junkyard, on Rte. 135, along the tracks. One could go in there, and 68-72 A cars were stacked like cordwood. Less than fifteen years old, some of them, and they were already junked.
There is a Large Fisher Body Build sheet you guys should be looking for. At least on Flint built. I found on my GSX in the cubby where the upper vent on drivers side is. It was rolled up. The dash needs to be out. On my 71 Stage-1 it was under the sound deadener on the passenger foot well. It was barely visible sticking out just below the heater box. Other places are inside windshield pillar covers and inside door panels.
By the way: board member "gnatsum" a.ka. Adam from England dropped the gas tank on his 1972 Riviera to replace the fuel sender. Didn't watch the whole video yet, so I'm not sure if he found the build sheet on top of the tank and/or mentions it in the video: 1972 Buick Riviera - Fuel Sender Replacement Hello friends and welcome, I’m V8 Adam. In this video I am showing you some video of my fuel tank being put back in following the replacement of the fuel sender. I have also included some useful information regarding fuel senders and gauge diagnostics.
