A photographed factory broadcast sheet visibly prints VIN 5D80L6Z500981. Its clearly legible entries include A01, C60, F41, GM8, J50, K30, LM1, M38, N33, N41 and YF5; faint fields are left untranscribed. The same listing gallery shows a pre-delivery inspection form dated May 27, 1976, but that photographed form does not independently display the VIN. Direct review of the broadcast-sheet photograph on September 30, 2026 found the carrier-acceptance date and signature lines blank. The earlier September 10, 1976 reading is therefore withdrawn for this source; the vehicle’s delivery chronology remains unverified. The seller described the Sprint as unrestored, showing approximately 71,000 miles, and owned for more than fifteen years. Those are seller claims; lifetime mileage is unknown (TMU). The archived $7,000 OBO figure is an asking price, not a verified sale. The destination dealer was in San Luis Obispo, California; Peoria, Arizona was a later listing venue. Current custody is unknown. No third-party images or private addresses are reproduced.

Both original images are linked under Sources. The images are linked at the original listing, not reproduced here.
Owner or seller statements
The archived seller reported that the Sprint was unrestored, showed approximately 71,000 miles, and had been owned for more than fifteen years. The $7,000 OBO figure was an asking price, not a confirmed transaction.
Later research
Later review distinguishes the VIN-matched factory/dealer papers from generic owner literature and seller testimony. The option codes listed in this record are limited to clearly legible broadcast-sheet entries.

Open questions
Unresolved: the non-VIN-bearing inspection form’s association and the vehicle’s delivery chronology require further documentation; faint broadcast-sheet entries, lifetime mileage, seller originality and ownership claims, and current custody remain unverified.
