...since they can be custom stamped, I can strike three "T's" if you like - it could be a rarity, worth more ya' know

This is what came with 88 p-type # 43, no special tags but it may be how they kept track of the keys for the engineering eval cars. If that is a 0 rather than a C then the car was probably one of the active suspension cars.

Yeah and to keep from confusing with the automatic ZR-1's, GM made sure to stamp in "6 speed"
