Yesterday when I was at the junkyard I found these in a 64,000 mile 82 Berlinetta.Ive seen the GM Maintenance Schedules before but have never seen a Consumer Information foldout.Has anyone seen this before?I think these will be a nice addition for my 82 Camaro and its owners manual

 

Hi,
I have the orginals that came with my 82 Firebird!

 

Ive got the one from my current 84 T/A

 

Nice! How weird is it to find a manual in a car at the parts yard?!

What was wrong with the Berli?

 

Not too weird.
I once found the whole owners folder, with all the brochures, including the window sticker, and in the hatch area, the factory service book!
In the junk yard!
No cost either!

I too have found a bunch of owners manuals and other GM booklets in cars at the salvage yards.The berlinetta was clean.Dont know why it was in the yard but I do like finding those hard to find 82 only door sill plates especially when they are the same color as my 82 interior

 

nice find. whats the coolest thing you have ever found in a car?

 

Do you by chance have any manuals or paper work for an 85 Iroc I could buy from you?

 

Money! haha

I've found:

Change
Lighters
Pens
Weed (yah, behind the dash once... REALLY old haha)
80's cassettes (nothing better than Whitesnake in the 'maro lol)
Gross candy/crayons/etc

But the coolest thing I ever found in a 3rd gen? Hmm, it's a toss up between the Boston 4x6" plates and a 1st gen Camaro emblem!

 

FIREBIRD overhead console flashlight,cherry condition.

 

Nice find I have found a bunch of upper consoles but never a flashlight, I am in need of one.

 

Ive found about 5 of those flashlights.Most with the O.H, but only one of those 5 was the F.B. light.

 

Wanna sell one, don't care if it works or not just to fill a hole?

 

Sorry i ebayed them long ago.

 

 

I too have found Money,lots of change and on more than 1 occation..weed.Usually just a roach but once a full joint...lol.I have found many manuals,overhead consoles with flashlights mostly Camaros but 2 Firebirds.Camaro center console clocks,Iroc Wonderbars,even found the passengers side air intake elbow from a H.O Camaro air cleaner setup,91-92 T/A GTA Tail lights.But last week I found something that ive only seen in pictures.I happened upon a loaded 87 LT Camaro in the boneyard with a complete factory Bose setup.I grabbed the kick panels and cargo cover and paid next to nothing for them

 

Did you get the amps too?

 

WHAT? kick panels came from the factory with speakers in them or are you talking about the sub in the sail panel?

 

The Bose system had a different headunit, speakers in the kicks, speakers on the back storage area lid, amps, etc. I don't know if they still used 4x6" in the dash or 6x9" in the sails though.

 

The bose used cheap flimsy speakers in the kicks instead of the usual cheap flimsy speakers in the dash.

In the back, the speakers were on the rear package tray instead of the normal 6x9 location.

 

Where would the amp be located?I was looking for one but didnt see it.Even if i found it I dont think I would have taken it as this yard charges 30.00 and up for amps
