ok i'm looking at a 84 Z-28 vin # 1G1AP87M80N164711

when i use the decoder i get:

Manufacturer: General Motors
Make: Chevrolet
A is NOT a known code for the Carline Code!
Carline Series: Camaro (all models)
Body Type: 2 door coupe
M is NOT a known Engine Code!
8 is the CHECK DIGIT.
0 is NOT a known Model Year Code!
Assembly Plant: Norwood
Production Sequence: 164711

what if it was an 83? the seller said it was an 83 H.O. but it has a steel hood and an auto, so i'm suspicious of that.
