Arrow Hello

I just picked up a 1972 Class Convertible. I will be on here from time to time looking for help, suggestions and pics of things I find that don't make sense.
The I picked up the car from the original owner. It has every service record form 72 and one repaint. I also have the Protect-O-Plate. Purchased it for 7K. Cant wait to get started on it!
Thanks advance for your help!
Mike

72 = 1972 model year
3 = Oldsmobile
42 = Cutlass Supreme
67 = convertible body style
LAN = Lansing assembly plant
359722 = body number
TR 977 = white vinyl bucket seats
Paint 56 = sunfire yellow lower body color
Paint A = white convertible top
1D = 4th week of January 1972 build date
A65 = front bench seat


So the TR 977 says bucket seats while the A65 says bench. What's on the car?

It has a White Vinyl Bench Seat with an Arm Rest.
Thank you so much!
