Normal Places To Find Factory Broadcast Sheets

If you have not done so already, I urge you to search your car for broadcast sheets. Sometimes there can be as many as 5 in one car, so if you do find one, please keep looking as there could be more. They do not always match the car they are found in due to how the assembly lines at the plant were run. If you find any sheets, please let me know if they match or not. It is very common to find a sheet for a different model of the same car. I have also heard of Challenger sheets in Cuda's, Duster sheets in Challengers & so on.

These locations are all typical for 1970 Hamtramck built cars. LA built cars are less likely to have broadcast sheets inside them because the plant had a 'no trash' policy. They have been found at times though, so you still need to look!

Here are some places to look:

  •  Taped to the back side / top of the glove box insert.
  •  Under the front bucket seats in the springs
  •  Inside the bucket seat backs
  •  Under the rear seat bottom
  •  In the rear seat back.
  •  Under the package tray (speaker shelf)
  •  Under the carpet

Please check all these locations and let me know what you find?

You can also check the 'FOUND' section here at Hamtramck-Historical.com to see if anything that matches your car's VIN has been found & sent in.

Thanks to the people all over the world that have sent these items in. Over 400 have been claimed so far & well over 8,000 more are still waiting to be claimed!

T/Ake care,
