Build Sheet: Anyone ever find one?

Out of curiosity I did a search here to see if anyone talks about build sheets for Broncos. Im talking about the factory paperwork from the assembly line that sometimes gets left in the car or truck after final assembly. I didn’t find anything here but I didn’t search very long. I’m asking because I remember a 77 bronco that I had several years ago and when I pulled the floormat out to clean the truck up I found what was left of the build sheet stuck to the floor, soaking wet and basically destroyed but it was still partially legible where I could read some alpha numeric codes.

For those who are interested in knowing where it was, it was between the seats just behind the transfer case shifter, between the floor and the floor mat.

Thanks

I can't answer about Bronco, but I've found them in Mustangs. Often the line worker would toss them inside just before the carpet went in. That's where I found one on a Boss car, but wet and tore very easy. I saved all I could, dried it out, and put between plastic. Still have it I think. I'd heard of others finding them wrapped up in under dash wiring harness, and even in the seat springs! I'd guess some Bronco build sheets were left inside as well.

Pretty commonly found between the seat springs and padding too.

I found the one to my 75 under the rear carpet or the mat.

My 72 Mach 1 had one near the pedals but the one for the Bronco was long gone
