First the hard data    57 6039X
                               Body 18043
                               Trim 61 A   OX
                               Paint 18
First question is what is the X in the first linne designating?

Secondly  What is the trim number mean? Standard or special order?

Thirdly what is the paint code designating?

The upholstery is all blue and I would have expected the upholstery trim would be two different colors with the Bolster being different than the lace and border?

Gary,

6039 is the model: Sixty Special; X indicates power windows.

61A is all Light Gray Mojave cloth for the seat upholstery

18 is Camelot Gray paint color

My earlier post about the plastic roof panels was incorrect. I thought your car was blue.......Sorry for any confusion
