Trim tag decoding help
While it was quickly getting dark last night, I tried to write down the code on the 78 I found. I'd decode on the net if the sequence made more sense, but I maybe someone here can tell where I went wrong...
First 5 of vin: 2W872 Fist trim tag line: 782FS87 L 17926B Second line trim tag: TR24B A51W11L THIRD LINE: 14A C3 ?????? Thanks in advance. |

2w87 is trans am
782FS87 is 1978 firebird L is Van Nuys California plant 17926B is body number TR24B is blue interior (Light/dark) A51 is bucket seats W11 is waterbased paint "cameo white" L means lower body 14A is build date C is red steering column 3 is power windows I hope I'm close. The 14A seems odd unless it means January 14. Van Nuy's cars have a more complex trim tag than the Norwood cars for 78-81.

Guess I really goofed up, car is black with red interior. I'll have to go back and try again before I make a purchasing decision. Thanks

LOL!! I've done that a few times....Can you take a pic of the trim tag? The "C" red steering column might explain things. Get a pic if you can.
