Default I need info

Is there somewhere else the RPO codes are listed for the car? The glove box lid is not the original and I need the paint code. The car is that metallic dark rootbeer color.

Exterior red color codes for your '88 are:
74-Dark Red Metallic
81-Bright Red

To be sure, contact the NCM with your VIN and get the build sheets for your specific car; they will give all the options along with it's "birthday".

My rpo code is showing WA8748 .I think they went to a 4 digit system in the mid 80s.

My 35th Anniversary build sheet shows 40U White & 41L Black, which corresponds with 40 White & 41 Black designations in the "Corvette Black Book".

My '90 Coupe is "Charcoal Metallic" and it looks like a dark rootbeer color. The RPO is 96.
