Default 96 vette manual LT-4 TPMS question

Hi guys,

so I decided to change the tires today. The shop took the tires off but there were no TPMS sensors. I thought all C4s had TPMS sensors. Are they just missing? I got the vette 2 months ago and it's a work in progress. The dash doesn't show any warning lights for the TPMS, so is it possible it didn't come with them? How do I find out if it did or did not?

Thx-

NO UJ6 on the label, so I guess the car didn't come with it
