Additionally, on the underside of the center console lid, there should be a sticker titled "Service Parts," which will list all the options originally installed on the car from the factory. You can then decode them here (one of many online sources of GM RPO info) to find out how the car was originally equipped: http://www.rpocodes.com/

The RPO sticker started in 1984, not sure if it was a full year production thing or after a particular date. This is a 1983, there will not be a SPID in the center console.
