Build Sheet Decoding (also posted in Paper Trail) Duane Heckman just delivered my decoded, reproduction build sheet to me, and I gotta say, I'm REALLY impressed~~~! This has pretty much every bit of information needed to build my car (maybe that's why they call it a "build" sheet). Mine was the first '72 from Fremont that Duane did; so I know it took him a lot of time, especially considering how neat and clean the reproduction came out, done in AutoCad and all.... In case you're not familiar with the service, Duane takes all the codes in the hundred-and-something blocks and translates them to real-world part numbers, colors, options, etc. One of the real kickers is that not all of these translations are in the Assembly Manual, and MANY are different from plant to plant. So this is no easy task. Thanks again, Duane, and I would highly recommend anyone with a build sheet to let Duane do his thing with it, for a rediculously low price, given the effort that goes into it....
