Reproduction Build Sheet
It IS illegal to reproduce a broadcast sheet !!
It has the Mopar pentastar on it and that is copyrighted.
I have a 1970 and a 1972 sheet in my hands right now.. there are no pentastars anywhere on either. The word "Chrysler" is used, but in a generic sans-serif font, no ®, © or TM or to be found anywhere on the sheet.
If you have a sheet that is in pieces, you can use a photo album page (grips the back and overlays the front) to assemble and keep it. A photocopy (color if desired) can be made for display purposes.
Since quite often, there are pieces unaccounted for when a sheet is in tatters, there will be codes that are unknown. Sure, you can guess or assume, but that's all it is.
The idea of displaying a broadcast sheet is to verify the originality of the vehicle it refers to. Changing it to suit your tastes, regardless of whether it has a ghost image serves no purpose. I like seeing old, tattered, pieced together sheets with original cars. Why would I (or anyone knowledgeable about bc sheets) be interested in studying or looking at something which is fabricated? The only people that might think it special are the owner, or someone who has no clue that it is a fake. Guess I'm just figuring out what benefit it really serves.
ECS (who can legally reproduce VIN door stickers and screening for the original dash VIN tag), showed a run of broadcast sheet tractor-feed paper he had made up allowing near-authentic repros of one's bcast sheet on another ^&&parts website a couple of years ago. Let's just say, the overall reaction was negative.
