No. No one can tell you that. You can speculate on being close, but are not likely to find any documentation to know for certain.

Thank you, So the only way to know is to track down the last 15 built to know for sure.

You can purchase the invoice on those cars @$50 each if it is that special to you. Vehicle invoice:http://www.gmmediaarchive.com/ but first go to the c3 registry and see if any later 79s are listed with the options to cut down on cost.

Good luck.

Do not read too much into that. It only means your car is the last 79 L-82 4 speed in Registry data base.
