[SCG] Build Tag Mystery

[Bill Hubbell]

I am putting new seat covers on my son's 1965 seats.  As I opened up the
upper part of the Driver's bucket, I was pleased to find a build sheet stuck
inside (Car Seats 016.jpg).  

However, after insecting the sheet (Car Seats 025.jpg), it is obviously NOT
the sheet for his car, which is a convertible, as this sheet is for a
4-door.  

OK, I know that after 40+ years seats may have been changed, although the
build date (03-03-65) is in the same week as my son's car (03A on the Fisher
tag).  That got me to thinking, "Why would the build sheet be stuck inside
the finished seat, anyway?"  You would think that Fisher would have wanted
the build sheet to be available during the body assembly, and yet, once the
seat top is sealed up you can't exactly get to it.  So what exactly was
going on here?  Did Fisher only partially assemble the seat, leaving it open
enough to shove the build sheet in once they were done with it?  Where
exactly on the line were these seats assembled anyway?  Is it possible that
a seat build for a 4-door could have been put in a convertible going down
the line the same day?

I could understand it better if the build sheet were merely stuck on the
bottom of the seat where you could reach up into the springs from below, but
why would they seal it inside of the top part of the seat?

Anybody have any answers?
