    Default Help decode 80 RS?

    Hey guys, I found a 80 RS I think I'm going to pick up. It is just sitting around and on it's way to scrap acording to the owner. It's an extreemly straight car, and I have no idea why anyone would want to scrap it, so I'm going to save it. Anyway, here's the info. It is a RS, and 1980. Missing motor and tranny, but appears to be all origional...

    VIN # OF14D659107

    DOOR TAG: 6180
    Body: 61 D
    Int Trim: DD
    S: B
    AX: G
    TR: WRRFF

    BUCK TAG:
    659107 61D MO 0443
    IC DF ST
    AC04 S
    CRS 08V
    34386 DCR


    It is a sun roof car too, black with orange RS stripping. I dont know much about this decoding stuff. I believe that the CRS means that it is a RS. I hope that I got all the info put down right, and that someone can make some sense out of all it. I'm just not too good at this stuff, and it would be neat to know a lil more about it. Thanks in advance! Count this one as another one saved. I will post pictures of it when I get it home. Alright, so work your magic, tell me more about this car...lol

    Um...lol... Ok, let me think. I haven't got the car here yet, so I have to remember. It had red interior, some black parts like dash I think. Like I said before, the exterior was black with orange RS decals, no rear wiper, cloth seats, no wheels. Thats about all I can remember.
