    If there was a build sheet for this car, where would it be hidden? I know on camaros they liked to put them under the seats and on top of the gas tanks...as this car has the original seats and gas tank in it, maybe I can get lucky?

    The letter W is often used as the accessory code for a tinted glass windshield.
