Newbie from Texas

New to the forum, just purchased a 1975 Cutlass S with the Y92 option with the intent to restore. Car has some rust issues but it will be fun to redo. Enough with the niceties, I'm ignorant about what the Y92 option really means, what options are really in the package. I'm also having difficulting in sourcing rear bumper fillers. My main question in starting out is how to decode the body badge (plate on the engine compartment deck passenger side). It seems this is where the options and paint codes are, but am not finding a lot of information on what the codes translate too. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Terry

Hi Terry
Welcome to the site! I don't know much about your vintage of car. If you don't get a response to your questions here then check out the 73-77 site at:

Hey Terry, welcome to CO!

Congrats on your purchase, as John stated, the 73-77forum is a nice place for info. I'm a member over there too.

You can also find info here too. A few 73-77 owners (myself included) are here on CO just like you, trying to learn as much as we can about the "forgotten 5" and share as much as we can as well.

I can help you with decoding most of your trim tag. What information is on it?

What type of restoration are you thinking of at the moment?

Also, photo's are helpful (when you're able to post them) and always welcomed.

Again, glad to have you aboard!
