I double checked the 007 and 423 and they are correct. Is there anything for a white vinyl top on it?

You'd be looking for a code starting with "V", and I don't see one in your fender tag. Does the car have a white vinyl roof?

Yes it does.

Interesting. Full or half vinyl roof? You'd be looking for a V20 or V4W code on the tag with white vinyl half-roof, or V1W with white vinyl full-roof.

Sounds familiar with another Duster I know.
EH Dan? Remember the funky order Number off of the Texas Duster of my Wifes? And the funky factory interior color?
By the way that AND the snake skin embossed Vynal roof were both factory.

L1 and or L2 and a 3 digit number show up sometimes after the 'END' code they are destination/sales codes but no one has a key to these yet...
