Kenmack:

Can you clarify exactly where your build sheet is and (yes) how to retrieve it. I ordered a copy from the NCM, but the real deal is better. Thanks.

Clarification

If you look at the 1st picture on left above the build sheet is clearly visible under the shiney tank strap.
Looking at the back of the car the build sheet is located behind the RH outboard taillight on the top corner of the gas tank under the tank strap.
Step 1 Remove license plate 4 screws
Step 1.5 With flashlight ensure you have a build sheet.
Step 2 Remove adjacent backup light (pass side) 2 nuts
Step 3 Remove inboard then outboard tail light 2 nuts each
Step 4 Through the outboard tailight place vicegrips at the base of the
tank strap where it expands into a round bolt before exiting
under the car.(if you don't ANCHOR the strap it will wind like
pretzel).Spray the threads under the car with loosenall.
Step 5 Under the car next to the muffler use a 5/8 or 11/16 socket to
slowly carefully loosen the nut on the tank strap.(ensure that
the vicegrips are holding the strap and preventing it from
winding around)It is course thread and does not turn easily.
Step 6 When you have loosened the strap enough you will be able to
carefully work the build sheet out from under it on the tank.
P.S. If you are impatient you will tear it as I did.
Step 7 When successful reassemble in the reverse order.

I found mine on the tank just as you described and found one in the right front frame rail too. Not perfect but still readable

Frame rail or Crossmember ???

I also pulled mine out of the front crossmember,just under the p steering reservoir.
There was a hole on the backside of the crossmember about the diameter of a dime.
It took about 1.5 hours of patience and tweezers, but I got it !!!!!!

Would a 92 be in the same place?
