Found the car's birth certificate (build sheet) its in pretty bad shape, but surprisingly readable. scared to touch it as it will break apart easily

Found lots of old coins (they are soaking in code to clean the corrosion at the moment.

Found a Speeding Ticket....degraded to the point where even light touching disintegrates it. Can't tell if its from the 1970's, 1980's, or 1990's

Someone swapped the original bucket seats for some E-Body seats long before I owned it unfortunately.

I found a copy of my build sheet under the front passenger side carpet up near the firewall !   You never know.

Nice find.
Hope you can preserve that build sheet.

Someone who does paper conservation should be able to help preserve your broadcast sheet.
