    Default Random Build Sheet I found

    Mick, can you decode and post the results? I found this build sheet under the rear seat of my old GT350 back in the early '90s, but it's for a different car obviously. I have always wondered what it went to.

    Obviously I had to photocopy it so there was enough contrast for it to be legible in a picture.

    Awesome, Thanks! I guess my old GT350 was built on March 14th around this one. Perhaps that build sheet went in the next car behind it because it was MIA, just this one was present.

    Can take a pic of the whole sheet and either post it here or, if it's too small to read, email it to me? If the latter send me a PM for an email address. Thanks.

    FYI: I believe the date on Line X is when the build sheet was printed, not when the car was built. Since you found this sheet in your G.T.350 then the rotations numbers were likely consecutive, i.e. yours was likely #1609 or #1611 for that day.
