Welcome to the Forum!
59 U/L is silver beige upper/ Lower.
59 I is the silver beige interior.
103575 consecutive unit number
G 013. - Date code. Is the "G" possibly a "C"?
Do you have a picture of the Trim Tag?

Here's the trim tag
I think you are right in that it could be a C and not a G. What does the whole date code mean please? Many thanks for the warm welcome and your help so far, as this is all new to me

C = 1982 Model year. 01 = January. B= Second week
'81-'82 Bowling Green cars ONLY, there is a letter following the last number in the date code. This letter represents the week of the month, ie: A= 1st week, B= second week, etc.

Thank you once again, you have been most helpful.
I'm interested in trying to find the history of the car as it has very little paperwork. Would you be aware of a way in doing this or is it impossible to do? It is a Californian registered car where it remained as far as I'm aware, until shipped to the UK recently.

As far as owner history- you could try a title search in each state the car was registered. You can start with the California Secretary of State or a DMV. Good Luck.
