SPID RPO Decode
I have been seeing conflicting information on my RPO codes and some things don't seem to mesh. I am seeing codes for things that are only available one way yet they show up conflicting that way in my SPID sticker. Also I am seeing conflicting information about my color. According to Willie's breakdown Gray was never available for the Trans Am in '84. Yet I have a gray car and I am seeing conflicting information about the color of the car. I will say this, there is absolutely no evidence of a repaint on this car.
Anyway I thought I did throw a photo of the sticker up here and have y'all give it a shot. Eventually I will probably go to PHS but I thought I did let you guys have fun decoding it.
see attachment (i've never been able to figure out how to post the photo on the thread itself)

Re: SPID RPO Decode
Your paint codes are along the bottom of the SPID sticker.. Your paint was enamel and the lower (L) and upper (U) colors are the same - 9322
If you do a Google search for WA 9233, you'll see it's charcoal grey and was available on GM cars in 1984.

Definately recheck what Willie stated. I'm not familiar with his statement, but I know for a fact that Grey was available on the 84 TAs. A friend in high school had one when it was new. It was a very nice car.

Re: SPID RPO Decode
I've seen several gray '84 T/As over the years. Seems to be pretty common to me. One of my friends has a Grey/L69/W62/WY6 '84 T/A that he bought from the original owner back in 1987 with about 10,000 miles.

Re: SPID RPO Decode
I apologize to Willie for the confusion but I believe it was WildJeff's early bird decode that brought that color question up here it is in his decode. "Dark Sand Gray Metallic (Firebird, S/E) 82."
Ok that question is settled, thanks guys, now anyone wanna give the rest of the RPO codes a shot? Some of them are not known to the TGO decoder.
