My dad is trying to find out what color the original top color on a 97 vert and I searched the vin for em hoping to find some info. Well I didn't find what i was looking for. All I came up w is drivetrain info etc. Does anyone know if the vin will give such info and if so how to decode or where to find out? I did some vin decoders but didn't find anything about color etc.
