That's why you tend to find them on top of the fuel tank. under the carpet, above the headliner, under the dash, behind the A pillar, or built up into the seat.
The sheets were not "placed" there, as much as they were "left" there. They were supposed to be gathered up and thrown away like extra screws, coffee cups, love notes, etc, but sometimes it was easier (or necessary) to just leave them where they lay.
I've only found one in all my collector vehicles: on top of the fuel tank of my Pontiac Michigan built GTO.
We still use build sheets taped to the vehicle to build products today.

Thank you, I don't recall there being anything under the carpet on the driver half when we had the driver seat out, and nothing behind a pillar, inside of dash, and no headliner in a drop top! Need to get the driver door panel off soon to work on a door latch so i can only hope.
