Hi All,
I've been trolling the forums for sometime and have found some very useful information on here.
I'm wondering if someone could help me decode this tag. I'm going to look at it tomorrow and hopefully buy it.
Thanks for the help!

Awesome! Thank you so much for the quick reply. This is a great forum. I'll update if I bring her home which I'm pretty sure I'm going too!
Can you get a pic of the door tag? Even if you don't buy it. The "body & paint rotations number" that I decoded above it actually four digits. The fourth digits is sometimes hidden by the screw, as it is on this tag. Can you get that fourth digit? And a list of options that this car has (see list below for all possible options, that are not already on the buck tag, for 1983 GT convertible). Thanks.

Thanks for the decodes......I'm going up Sunday with a plate and plan on driving it home! I'll post an update Sunday. Fingers crossed
I am very happy to report I am the proud owner of an 83 GT Converttible. The car is absolute beautiful. There is not a spot of rust anywhere on the car. I'm the third owner and they guy said its never been out in winter and limited in the rain and always garage kept. I believe it it's mint! I'm pretty pumped I drove it home down I95 for an hour and a half and she runs like a dream! I'll get pics up soon.
heres the original factory options:
Premium Sound
Interval wipers
cloth trim
p205/70r14 bow tires
leather wrapped wheel
a/c
am/fm stero w/cassette
light group
4floor mats
rusty Jones
it has the 16 slot wheels
it was sold on 11/30/1983 at Wagner ford in simsbury, Ct
And I'm guessing it got the Ziebart rust proofing as well

I'm not sure about the Ziebart rust proofing. I am not aware of what that is. I was listing off the options on the window sticker.
"Rusty Jones" is rustproofing.

Is there any way you can take a rag and some cleaner (WD-40, adhesive remover, paint thinner, etc.) to the door tag so I can see what the A/C code and whole TR code is? Thanks.

Hey fox chasis.....I tried to get a better door tag pic my it didn't come out well. Gotta try and clean it up a little better and I'll report back for the codes you asked for. A/c looks to be blank though I can't see anything there. I'll work on the rest of the TR.
