Demmer Shipping Receipts

Shipping receipts and forms for my car from Oldsmobile to Demmer.

3 pieces of documentation existed with each 1969 Hurst/Olds conversion, documenting the vehicles travel from Oldsmobile to Demmer and back to Oldsmobile after conversion.
The cars were driven back and forth from Oldsmobile to Demmer by UAW employees, distance was less than one mile.

1) Demmer Delivery Receipt (Oldsmobile to Demmer)

2) Demmer Shipper Receipt (Contains dealer destination information)

3) Demmer Delivery Receipt (Demmer to Oldsmobile)

You should not find the 'Demmer Number' on the 1st peice of documentation, "Delivery Receipt" as the Demmer Number was not available at that point. That would only confirm the receipt of the car when driven from Oldsmobile to Demmer and someone at Demmer 'signing off' on that with partial vin. Most also contain driver of Olds to Demmer and reciever at Demmer. The Demmer number first appears on the 'Shipper' document. As these are all multi part carbon paper forms, not sure if that number existed on the forms or was stamped all the way through them. These started at "1" and sequentially increased through production.
The 3rd document, Delivery Receipt (Demmer to Olds) should contain the Demmer #, originating from the Shipper document, partial vin, driver from Demmer to Olds and receiver at Olds. All should have the date as well....

The Demmer number is NOT an exact representation of production sequence, but it is close. For example, Demmer #300 may or may not be the exact 300th Hurst/Olds completed as the cars were pulled in, assigned the Demmer number and then worked on in close approximation. Vehicles were not pulled in and worked on in exact Demmer # order.
See an example below of the conversion process at Demmer with 1968 H/O's as the example.

Window Sticker Supplements

Here are multiple supplements to the Oldsmobile window sticker that explains the details to the Hurst/Olds package and the list price. It was pasted on the window next to the regular window sticker.
The first one is a repop, the rest are originals'

Thanks to Ed Nunez, Ken Millington, and others.

Broadcast Cards

Mine was discovered under the rear seat of my car in the coils of the seat. Other examples as well.

Look for yours under the rear seat of your car, the seat is not that difficult to remove, just grab the lower portion of the rear seat where the seat meets the floor, push toward the back/trunk of the car then lift up and it should lift out of the way. The seat has some metal loops underneath that hook onto the floor of the car, by pushing in this way it will 'unhook' the seat. Replace the seat in reverse fashion.
