Trim Tag Help!

Could someone help with decoding this tag ?!

05D 2 2
ST 68 34477 BL 222 BODY
TR 950 B90 VV PAINT


On the 'ST' line, not sure about the 'BL'. Could also be '3L' or '8L'.

Also, the '2' and '2' on the first line are to the right side of the tag.

Much appreciated!

Thanks Allan! You are THE MAN! Yeah, the '222' is interesting and not familiar with that color. For some reason, I was thinking the '222' was sequence number off the line in which case this would be a really low production number. Now, for the million dollar questions, what's it worth ? . Kidding...I know that's a loaded question and virtually impossible to answer especially given the lack of details and pics. Unfortunately, the seller still thinks this is 2004. Oh well, might be a while before he unloads it. Thanks!

Post some more details about the car and a couple of pics. Someone might be able to suggest a good price range. If the car is listed on CL, post the link?

68 442 Post Bench 4 speed

Here is the cl ad http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/cto/3137241629.html

It's a pretty cool car...bench seat, post, 4 speed but body needs a lot of help and price is high. I have a lot of pics that the seller texted me that I can email to anyone interested. I don't believe he had build sheet or any other docs and isn't sure about matching numbers.

Personally, I think it's over-priced...other opinions?
