3= Oldsmobile Division GM
F= Cutlass (base model)
87= 2-door fastback hardtop
H= 350-2 barrel single exhaust Oldsmobile engine
2= 1972 model year
R= built at Arlington Texas assembly plant
171253= vehicle sequential ID number


There's also a body data plate underhood that has information about original color, interior and options.
