Well Umm...

Wrong car?

From Camaro.ca vin decoder:

VIN: 1G2FS23F0NL200001

(Third Generation Camaro)
1992 Camaro Hatchback Coupe
305ci V8 (LB9)
Built at: Van Nuys Assembly
Unit number: 200001

Dimensions:
Length: 192.6 Inches
Height: 50.4 Inches
Width: 72.4 Inches
Wheelbase: 101.0 Inches

1992 Production: 70,007 vehicles total
V6: 23,825 vehicles
V8: 46,182 vehicles

Can you tell me now, how you got a 92 Camaro VIN on an 87 Bird/Formy/Whatever it is? Are you first owner?
I would be calling GM to get all of the history on that VIN...

I was focusing on the 6th & 7th digits...

I thought 23 would indicate a Convertable, but my dyslexia got in the way....
