Welcome to the FORUM.

The code number is stamped on the TRIM TAG (2X3 inch plate) riveted to the driver's door pillar about midway down.

Here's what you're looking for:

Codes are posted in The Corvette Black Book and other sources.

Took another look at the tag. It is similar to the one posted above.
Next to Chevrolet is I28
Trim 642 33L Paint

I28 indicates the car was built around April 28.

642 indicates Buckskin Leather (64 is Buckskin, 2 is Leather)

33 Paint indicates Dark Green

The NCRS 1968-1982 Corvette Specifications Guide is a handy book to help you decipher many numbers on your car.
