Build sheet

I was messing with a faulty seat belt in my 1980 cutlass that required me to pull the rear seats and trim panels and to my surprise i think i found the build sheet to the car . Have no idea what all these codes are but it's a cool document to have . Anyone care to take a stab at ti?

Nice find. Amazingly well preserved.


It's easier when I don't have to crane my neck. Nicer to see the whole thing in one photo.

Got the cool KM9 aluminum intake! haha Plus the CH2 RPO basically telling you that you got the pancake 4 cylinder A/C compressor.

Note the VD5 and VD6 are your front/rear bumper supports. Front one says it's steel, rear one says aluminum. That's somewhat odd, but not out of place. Most of the time you would find either both steel or both aluminum. Along with your T46 steel hood. I think that was the time they would slide in an RPO T45 aluminum hood every now and again. I remember they were doing that up through 1984, but as to which got which type, it seemed random.

Nothing super spectacular jumps out at me on the options list. They only made 40 zillion Cutlasses back then. But yours seems nicely equipped.

Looks sharp!

Would love to have found that info on my 69 Lansing built cutlass. Wonder why the tilt column would have been changed out
