No RPO sticker on console lid?

My sticker is missing from my 1983 Camaro's console lid. Is there any other place I can find the RPOs?

Good luck in finding it! I've taken apart a few Firebirds and T/A's and i still haven't found any rpo sheets. someone said they found them under the seat between the springs and some find them under the rug--good luck!!

Where exactly did you find them in the rear compartment area? Also is there any way I could look up my VIN and tell what options it came with?

The RPO labels didn't start showing up in the consoles until 1984. There are no RPO labels for 1982-83 Camaros/Firebirds.

So what do I do now? I already tore apart my whole interior looking for the build sheet, and didn't find anything ! Is there a way I can look up my vin at a dealership or something and find out my rpos ?

This is HT85IrocZ, well that was my brothers name. Now I have my own. Anyway I heard that 83 camaros build sheets in the interior only told about the seats. Oh well thanks for the help!

Try contacting previous owners, if your department of motor vehicles will give out the info. Eventually you may get back to someone who knows or has original paperwork.

My RPO sheet was in the rear compartment in the locking box on the driver's side at the furthest back point.

Thanks alot! I probably need to say that I don't have the title for my car cause the previous owner lost it(well what did I expect I got the car for $100.) Someone told me that I just have to bring the guy I bought it from with me to courthouse and they will make me a new title. Is this true?

You would have to check your local laws since they vary from state to state.
