Is there any way to get original information regularly found on the fender tag without having the fender tag? Other than the build sheet? Anyway to trace it back from the VIN#? I don't intend to restore this car...just kind of curious to know how it started out.

Unless you happen to know which dearlership sold it and if someone kept all their copies of the paperwork all these years (i.e. the original order) and was willing to search through what must be a HUGE pile of paperwork if it still exists.

Just no was the easier answer I think. Image

Needless to say, I was afraid of that. Guess I'll just make it the way I want it and leave it at that.

All records were destroyed in fire.

The records at the factory were. At least a large proportion were. Some dealership records still exist such as GSD. Some private individuals have some records too. One has a quite extensive collection of factory records and internal memos etc.

You don't have access to them though. Except the GSD records which if you join the Mr Norm club they can check for you.

Who do I call to start the search, since I have a car without a full broadcast sheet...only half.

You have half the broadcast sheet? That's a start. Why don't you scan that and post it? At least some of your questions will be eliminated that way. I thought you were totally without info on this car. It may be in GG's registry from the days when it had a fender tag. If so, he would have a record of it.

Jack,
I'm the one with virtually no info on the car -Steve R is another person. I'm hoping to get the car here in another 2 weeks or so - I'll see what actually comes on the car then. Thanks for all of your help.
