Where to find build sheet?

I just purchased an all original 60,000 mile 1989 Iroc Z with a 350 T.P.I. Red on Red car with no t-tops.

My question is, Where did the assembly plant hide the build sheets in these cars? Where will I most likely find it. Im not talking about the sticker in the console with all the codes.

Im talking about the piece of paper that told the workers what went on each car and where the car was to be shipped and such. You know how on 2nd gen F-bodies they are usually behind the back seat back, under the front seat or on top of the fuel tank.

Any help would be appreciated.

The infomation on build sheets used in later 3rd-gens isn't nearly as complete as the earlier cars. I have always found a copy in each of the front seat bottom cushion springs on 87-up cars.

So if you take your seat out you can see it?

Mine was glued to the panel that covered the spare/jack. Pretty mangled but I was able to salvage the part that said "Turbo GTA"
