I discovered just now in another post that RPO sheets were not found in '82 or '83 F bodies. How about the build sheets?? Aren't they commonly found under the carpet, or are they located somewhere else? My friend with the '83 L69 and I are trying to figure out what the factory options were on this car.

it should be under the driver seat with some black fabric and metal wire covering it.

 

when you guys say under the seat do you mean on the floor or up in the bottom of the seat?

Up in the seat.

 

On my 86 I found one sheet under the drivers seat cushion (CHAS03), and a different one under the rear bumper cover (CHAS02).

The one under my seat includes some interior codes, suspension codes, and wheel codes. The codes on this sheet are mainly 2 letter parts codes, and don't directly translate into rpo codes. The only direct rpo codes on mine deal custom interior: AR9 and YR1.

The one under my bumper includes engine, trans, air, cruise, gauges, destination, exaust, emissions, paint, plus more. This one is impossible to read in some areas because it was exposed to the elements from 1986 until I found it in 1989.

I have heard of sheets found on top of the gas tank and under the headliner as well. I haven't found CHAS01 or any others if they ever existed. Remember these were supposed to be removed from the car, not left with it. Hope this helps a little.

I just had my interior torn down to nothin g and it isn't there, maybe I will try the dash area next.

Jason, my '82's build sheet was under the carpet in the bottom of the "well" in the back. My '83's was under the the back seat bottom. Yours may be anywhere. Good luck!

There is no set location for the build sheet, it all depended on who was working on the car as to where it might have ended up if anywhere at all.

 

I've taken about 4 fbodies completely apart, and I've only found 1 rpo sheet-came from an 86 Iroc-it was under the rug near the driver seat.

 

i have found only one and ive taken apart the following in last couple eyars: 82 trans am, 83 Z28, 84 S/E and 84 Z28, 88 firebird

found sheet laying in back of the 88 bird, someone had pulled up rear carpet

the 82 i am trying to find one in currently,

i have totally removed all interior except dash and headliner ansd havent even found a piece of sheet paper, ive got an 83 caprice that pieces of its sheet under driver seat somewhere has been falling out theres a piecwe of it in front of me on the flor in here right now i am glancing at as a matter of fact.

i have found alot of sheets in some late 70s trucks and cars like impalas and 77 78 pickups

pickups been having SPID labels on glovebox door since 1967

 

Ohh im going out to my garage tonight and im going to have a close look for my bulidsheet. That would be really coll to find one.

 

Please everybody who have found theirs, can you tell me where.
Ive looked under the driver seat and passenger seat but no result. So i need more ideas of where to look. Maybe remove the dash or????

 

They aren't always in the car. They were sometimes tossed at the factory or sometimes just thrown in the car. When the dealer got the car and did their cleanup, these papers were tossed. Unless the build sheets are stashed somewhere that has already been identified, then they aren't in the car.

 

Awesome, now I have to go looking for my build sheet

 

Holy revival of a dead post!!! I just did a search for my own posts and came across this one. I thought I started it about my '91...not my '89 I sold 7 years ago

EDIT: Funny to see my old sig at the top of this thread

 

why i did you sell them dude
