    And/or the trim tag?

    TR 156 53 E

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thanks,

    4=Buick,34=GS,67=convertible,H=Flint build plant,200112=sequence build number, next car was 200113.
    TR156=Saddle interior, 53=lower body colour Cortez Gold, E= top colour Sandalwood.
    Nice car!
    There is one on Marco's Stage 1 page with a white top. Really an eye catcher.

    As I recall the 34 in 71 could be a GS350 or a GS455. You cannot tell from the VIN.
