1954 floor pan index card

[John I.]

Anybody encountered an index card laminated into the passenger side floor pan during a restoration of a 1954?

John,

When you say "Index Card" does it have anything on it? text? blank?

Also, if you post a picture of the card, experts on this site may be able to help you more...

How do I upload a photo?

Re: 1954 floor pan index card

take a "xxx.jpg" digital camera shot of the index card and then click on the third icon from the right above (just to the right of the one that has a "world globe" with a red X in it) and that allows you to link the jpg file on your computer to the post.

Mark,

I tried to upload, converted the image to jpeg and no luck. Can I email the photo to you? I called the corvette museum and sent them photos with no reply. Showed Dave Ingrahm at Barrett Jackson and he had not seen one before. Just want to get the info out there for the corvette restorers.

John,
Very interesting shots - thanks for providing them!

Based on TDB file type and size requirements, I consolidated all of your shots into one pdf file: 1954 index card rotated.pdf

Hopefully others on this site knowledgeable about '54s can provide more info for you...thx, Mark

This is a one owner car that I just finished restoring. When I took up the carpet and the pad there was a laminated index card in the passenger side floor pan

In one of the photos I have taken the image and enhanced it on my computer to the best of my ability. I called the Corvette Museum and sent them photos but did not get a response. I thought it was something interesting to add to the groups knowledge base.

I saw this post recently and thought "gee, wouldn't it be cool if I found something like that in my 54." Then, lo and behold, I was under the dash last night doing disassembly and saw this! It is under the dash just to the right of the rearview mirror. The date is in the ballpark of all the other dates in the car. Everything seems to be Jan, Feb, March of 1954. It appears to be very similar in format to what the OP posted from his car.
