Cowl Tag info please
Trying to sort out the cowl tag on my 67 Cultass Supreme Conv.Got most of the stuff I need from the Oldsmobility site.
Couple of things I can't figure out.
1)Trim code is 988-B. 988 = yellow and I assume bucket seats as apparently 67 bench seats didn't come in yellow. What does the "B" stand for?
2) Paint Code is Y-6. Y = Yellow. What is the "6"
3) The last code, which is stamped below the trim code,is " W 2E "
No idea what that is.
Pretty weird that my trim looks like yellow painted over Parchment when its a yellow trim car.
Is there a way to tell from the numbers what colour the top was when it rolled off the assembly line...or is that what the "6" is?
All assistance gratefully appreciated as always.

Thank you kindly Kurt...you're a legend.
Does *every* piece look that? Possibly worn seats were replaced with parchment and dyed, or recovered in parchment and dyed.
