[DML] Interesting find inside door

[NJP548@xxxx]

Hey List,

I had found a piece of paper inside the drivers side door of my DeLorean 
some time ago (it was located at the top of the door where the headliner 
snaps into) , I put it away and forgot about it. Recently when I was 
cleaning out my room, I found it and I remember a thread on the list about 
finding interesting things in their cars and I just wanted to tell everyone 
about it. Its a piece of paper dated 4/29/81, and its sort of a check list 
to adjust the door locks on the cars. On the paper it says that there was an 
"Electrical Test Unit" to test the electric locks on the cars. I find it 
most interesting to note that my car was built June of 81 and this paper is 
dated April 29 of 81. I wonder how long my car was on the assembly line or 
even outside the factory waiting to be shipped to the states after it was 
finished being built? Does anyone know at which point on the assembly 
process does the VIN plates get added to the car? Another note to make is 
that the door itself has a magic marker that is dated 5/31/81. Also who ever 
did this check list on my car must have been given a number or something 
because whenever he/she finished doing that portion of the check list there 
is a little box on the right side of the paper and they put the number "270" 
in it. I am going to scan this piece of paper and add it to the EGroups 
vault for all to see. It should be there by the end of tonight (12/20/99) 
Thats all for now. Happy Holidays everyone.

Later,
Nick
