72 = model year 1972
34257 = GM division and body type = Oldsmobile (3) Cutlass Supreme (42) Hardtop Coupe (57)
R = assembly plant = Arlington TX
01084 = body number = a number assigned to that body by the assembly plant
984 = trim number (interior color) = ????? (don't have in my books)
A65 = front seat type = notch back bench seat
57 = lower body color = baroque gold
T = conv or vinyl top color = covert beige
08D = time build code = the eight month of the year, fourth week of that month = August 1971, 4th week (8/23 thru 8/27)
144 = an option code (I don't have these codes in my books)

Hope someone else can help you for the interior color (984) and the option code (144).
