I asked the following questions to the seller and got the following
response:
> How did you come across this build sheet? Did you ever own the car that
this came out of?
To be honest I do not remember, my husband and I have had at least 35 or
more Chevelles. It is quite
possible that
this was out of one of our cars but I cannot honestly say that for sure. I
have taken several out of
the cars we have owned,
over the years.
I also have done some upholstery work and could have taken that out to give
a customer and my husband
or son's may
have given them their seats and I never thought about it until later. I
don't have everyone's names
to the Chevelle Seats I
have done. I may only have had their first name.
It bothers me because I would like this build sheet to be with the car it
belongs to.I like to
preserve them when I can and
give them to the customers on the few occasions I have found them. I
thought I would put it on Ebay
with a high reserve
and hope that the person that owns this car will check out Ebay. I also put
a link to this Ebay site
on the popular Chevelle site.
Thanks, Debbie

It sounds amroable to get it back to the orginal owners, but on the other
hand if you have worked with this many Chevelles over the years you would
think that one would know how important it is to keep it with the car. I
guys entire value of his car is wrapped up in those build sheets. My .02

Please respond to
chevelle-list
I think this really sucks that guys are putting original buildsheets on
ebay... what a way to make a buck.
I can see guys tearing into the cars, finding the build sheets, selling the
cars and then holding the build sheets as hostages... or threating to sell
them on ebay... to be gone forever... what a low blow to our hobby... IMO
...
Check this one out:

He's already got a bid for $50 and that isnt even the reserve.� What the
heck are you gonna do with a build sheet that doesnt match your car unless
you try to find the owner and swindle them out of $$$$ ... just like that
one on the thread on TC where the guy was trying to get a $1000 for the
Protecto-Plate out of the guy he just sold the car to.�� Sucks!!
If I knew what the reserve was, I might just buy the thing to track down
the owner and give it to them.� Do you think that would make their day!!� I
know it would make mine.� What a present!!
Thanks for listening to my venting.� Of course this is just IMO.
