The S stands for Special. The deck and lower body would be the first number, the nose, upper body and roof would be the 2nd number.

As for the rest (as far as I know)
55 = 1955
3611D = Super 88 2 dr sedan (could be wrong, I only have a manual from 1956)
BC452 = BC is the code for the assembly plant where the car was made. Not sure which one BC is. and 452 means it was the 452nd super 88 2dr assembled at the plant in 1955
Trim 382 is the interior trim code. My manual doesnt list them

TOP = if there was a code beside this it would be a convertible (I think)
ACC = if there was a code beside this it would list any factory installed options.
