    1978 Skylark cowl tag decoding

    Hello! I have a problem with decoding the cowl tag for 1978 Skylark 2dr Coupe.

    78 - model year
    4XB27 - Skylark 2dr coupe
    W - Willow Run, Mi plant
    247821 - serial number
    24B - light blue cloth interior
    A52 - ???
    22 - paint Medium Blue
    22T - vinyl top color - and here is a problem, I have found that it should be Light Blue, but the car has white top which looks original
    06C - build date third week of June
    0394 - ???

    A52 = seat code = bench front seat
    0394 = batch or line number

    Everything else looks correct.
