31 is the code for 1982 bright blue; 92 probably indicates silver beige leather. No such codes for the 78 models. You may want to post a pic of your trim tag.

The only two toned 78s were those with the optional B2Z silver anniversay piant scheme and the Pace Cars. Trim tags for both of these show both colors of paint.

Go here http://www.corvetteactioncenter.com/...x.php?cmd=area and see if youcan obtain a copy of the original dealer invoice for your 78.
