please post a photo of your title. Also you can get the build sheet on your car since it was built after 1977

My '76 said S6J or something like that. I couldn't figure out what that meant. I asked the lady at the DMV and she didn't know. As long as the VIN matched, that's all that mattered to me.

Look at the first 4 digits of your VIN. It will say 1Z87xxxxxxx. The 1 is for Chevy, Z is for Corvette, and 87 is for coupe. Thus the z87 is saying Corvette coupe.
