I thought my build sheet was long gone but last night I pulled the passenger seat and pulled the carpet and there it was  :2thumbs:  What's left of it anyway.  It is in really bad shape and was literally stuck to the floor and the carpet.  I managed to get it out in several pieces.  The seat bolt went right through the middle of the sheet  :rotz:  Any way I have a couple questions.  Is there any good way to try to preserve what is left of it and to try to get the pieces back together?  
Also along the bottom of the sheet it clearly says "SPECIAL HANDLING CAR"  What exactly does that mean?  :shruggy:

Any help is much appreciated.

thank you

Here is a pic of it.  The hole is where the seat bolt was  :-\

What are the Y codes? That may help determine the special handling remarks.

Hey Sky, take a peek under your dash behind the glove box.  I found a second, mint broadcast sheet for my car tucked up there.

You might get lucky.

Craig, your car being a sunroof car got the "Special Handling" on the BS
Chris' '69 Charger R/T

               "Special Handling Car" on the broadcast sheet  (with your car being a sunroof car) usually meant that special instructions/directions were taken during the build process. Chrysler sent the cars out to American Sunroof Corp. to have the sunroofs installed and then they were later sent back to Chrysler to have the vinyl roof put on.

          I believe Charger 500's and Daytona's also had the Special Handling Car coded on their buildsheets as they were sent to Creative Industries for their modifications. I would love to see some pics of your sunroof car.

I figured it might have something to do with that.  Thanks for the info  :2thumbs:

Good to know!  Thanks.  I posted some pics a while back in the pics of your charger section...but hopefully my car will be mobile again in the next few months where I can take some fresh pics.  It's in pretty rough shape body wise but it is complete and I plan to drive it again this summer. Will post news pics asap.  Thanks again  :2thumbs:  Here is what it looked like the day I got it...
