Hey Greg, great question as I wondered the same exact thing when I originally got the original paperwork on the car and a photo of the trim tag. Here's a link to an article on PHS on special order paints.

I read about it somewhere else as well and can't find it. I researched well in to the night on this. It appears as though, depending on the plant, they used different nomenclature for that spot on the cowl tag for special paint. --, 1,1-, just left it blank or used the actual long paint code. I was able to confirm my color from the build sheet and spots on the car. Also, there is no indication anywhere that there was a vinyl top.
