the paint code on my 84 Le Sabre is 11T, what color is this?

On the 84 models the 11T = the color of the Vinyl top / top moulding.
11 = White.
If this is an all White LeSabre the RPO data sheet in your trunk would
read 11L 11U. With a Vinyl Top you should see a C04 or C09 and at
bottom a 11L WA 3967 and a 11T.
On the RPO Data Sheet the bottom line is the cars Color Options.

thanks
it does have a full white vinyl top, the paint color is a burgundy/maroonish color

here's what the data plate reads: 01C 4BP69 X 157910
73L 11T LACQUER
77E AM6 11T
16 4250 G
I am curious, the VIN, title and the service parts ID label, and the door sticker all show the model as 4AP69, why is this?

01C = 3rd week of January Build
4BP69 X 159910
4 = Buick Division
B = Body Platform
P = LeSabre Limited
X = Fairfax
159910 = Sequencial Build Number

73L = Lt. Maple Exterior, Lower Body Color
11T = White Vinyl Top

77E = Interior Trim, Dk. Maple, Cloth and Vinyl
AM6 = 60/40 Bench Seat with Armrest
11T = ( in this line ) White Top Mouldings
16 4250 G = I believe these to be Internal Factory Codes

Your VIN probably reads
1G4AP69 _ 1EX _ _ _ _ _ _
1G4 = U.S. Mfg.,GM, Buick Division
A = Passive Restraint Manual Seat Belt
P = LeSabre Limited
69 = 4 DR
This location is Engine code
1 = Check Digit
E = Model Year,1984
X = Assembly Plant
Next 6 Digits are Vehicle ID sequence
