Build Sheet, or a KanBan

This was posted on the supras.com email list by Hines. Never seen anything like it myself. According to one person on the list, it is a Build Sheet, or a KanBan.It follows the car all through the build process to make sure it gets the equipment specified.

Cool. Factory/dealer documents like this are always interesting...

I always track down dealer brochures/window stickers/accessory catalogs for my project cars. Great stuff to frame and stick on the garage wall. Still have to find supra ones to add to my collection though.

Yeah, the human side to making things by big corps is often suppressed. I am hoping someone who reads Japanese can decipher some of it.

That is neat, a friend of mine found a late 70's truck from the original owner that had a build sheet from the factory. Stuff like that is rare!

I can read it well some of it. It is a build sheet for the car. I need to look at the Frame # chart again but this is for a 87 N/A possibly hardtop.

Well someone on SupraMania may own this car it was destined for the USA. It was built in June of 1987. *Narrowing it down more* So to anyone who has a 87 N/A Supra thats Auto or was Auto and the original colour is 040 Super White, that did not come with the sport package, look at the frame number stamped on the firewall if the number reads 0069155 then this is the buildsheet for your car.

My dad found one of these under the floor mats on his '64 Impala, it's pretty cool to see something like that especially when it's so old.

Nice find man. My 2001 SS had one, but it's not like the car was all that old, so it's not really a rare find like this.
