The VIN number tells you that it was no 110730 built by GM in 1995.
The "Y" tells you that it is a Corvette .
The option codes are usually under the console lid.Post them and someone will decode them for you.

Your option codes are either under your console lid or in the back hatch compartment lid. :cheers: It will be a bunch of 3 didit letter/number combos.

Is there any way to tell how many competition yellow corvettes were made with these options in 1995? Someone already helped me and told me there were 1033 competition yellows made, but not with these options. Thanks in advance,

Joe
