Re: build sheet on door?

The door line had their own build sheet. That was probably the case with the engine and other sub assembly lines. That’s why some build sheets were found in the frames of the vehicles.
Squarebodies were trimmed out at the final assembly location with the doors attached; doors weren't removed and then built up on a separate line.

That would make finding a build sheet in the door very unlikely (but I never say "never"). If someone misplaced the trim ticket and put it in the door you might find one. You would be more likely to find an old inspection ticket, or part number tag, or paper coffee cup, or extra fasteners, or love note, or lunch menu, though.
