It's hard to find a breakout chart for fender tag codes later than '74. Be careful applying earlier codes (as you seem to have done) to later cars like yours; the meaning of some things changed over the years.

Too many people who were born on third base actually believe they've hit a triple.

^^ You're completely right. I used a few different online decoders and tables to come up with the above, but I recognize it's only for reference purposes, and the codes might be dated. Still nice to see, though.

K2-Stripe Type 2 Hood and deck- W is "white and black"
K3-Stripe Type 3 Body Side Accent - White and black
K9- Body Side Mouldings Type 3 - White and Black

Everything else looks correct.
