Build Sheet????

[ambitions2]

Well I found the build sheet underneath the back seat .  It is in great condition, however how should I preserve it, should I laminate it?  Any other suggestions?  If you had a build sheet how'd you do it?  Thanks.

I just put mine in a clear plastic sleeve that has a flap over the top so nothing can get in/out, then put in a 3 ring binder with hard covers, in a dry place, low humidity. 

I'm not sure what happens to lamination after a few years.  I would be afraid it would yellow/crack, depending on the quality. 

Also take pics of it and store it on CD.  If they are high resolution you'll be able to zoom in and see the type/codes with out disturbing the original build sheet.

Get 2 or 3 color photo copies made. Laminate the original, store one in your "car folder stuff".
Keep one in the car and one somewhere else.

As long as they are in 3 different places and you have the original safely tucked away, you'll be sweet.


Oh yeah, great score mate!! Wish mine was in the car.

Great find!  I'm leary about the laminating thing. I put the part of ours that the mice didn't get to in a sheet protector and have it stored away.

Laminating original documents it bad. The best way is to insert it in an acid free plastic sleave and store it in a safe place. I also reccomend making at least 4 high quality color copies, place three if the same type of sleeves and place them in the seat springs of the car. Use the 4th one for reference when needed.



T/Ake care,
