I pulled 4 build sheets out of my VN built 78 when it was new.

Norwood was not near as generous....

Behind back seat backrest...pass side is your best bet

From John Witzke pdf:

Quote:
The cost for the T/A 6.6 engine and WS6 package with the black and gold Y82/Y84 and gold Y88 special edition cars was $151.00.
It was included in the WS6 option on your sheet.

Depending on the date your car was ordered.......WS6 and W72 were sold as a combined option..or individually spec'd....

W72....by itself was like $50.......IIRC

Has anyone seen a 78 Y88 with a factory Black Rug ? I got my car home ,it’s a one owner Barn find 65k original miles and the carpet is Black . Could the owner have ordered it this way . And what’s the Codes for Carpet colors . I would like to keep this original . PHS shows ait to be a True Y88 . I was under the impression they all got Gold Rugs . Any help would be appreciated

After 40 years, previous owners could have done anything. Light tan carpet gets worn and awfully grubby. Someone may select black as an easy swap that hides a lot of dirt and the most common colour to be in stock. My camel interior Formula was also like that, previous guy added a black carpet. Didn't look bad either, but now tan again.
