Quick ECL code question (983AA paint)
Good evening!
I went with my dad, @SamEYEam this past week to check out a 1967 goodwood green vette. I was able to find the C2 trim tag ECL decoder, and saw that the 420BP meant that it had saddle vinyl and a hard top (but no power windows, no headrests, and no powerglide). I am curious what the "AA" means behind the "983" paint code? The build date was F06. The trim tag is laid out like this:
F06
67 467 S4381
420BP 983AA
Thanks for the input!

AA is not an ECL code. ECL was associated with TRIM codes.. Chevrolet could not make up its mind on Color designations on Corvette Trim Tags. AA (or A for AOS bodies) was simply letters attached to the number identifying Color, except in 65, when all colors used 900, plus a pair of letters, ie, Q-Q, or X-X, etc. In other words, AA next to your 983 color number means nothing at all.
