It is a Sport Coupe, but it's not a Grand National. This car was produced too early in the model year to be a GN. Still a neat car because of it's options.

The gray and silver paint is part of the RPO Y44 Sport Coupe Decor package (like a 1984/86 WH1 option car). It looks a lot like a GN, especially since it would have a blacked out grille and light bezels. Also, it has a Landau roof instead of T Tops. Same slate gray/charcoal interior color, but with the upgarded interior of a Limited model and a console between the 45/45 seats.

You have a well optioned '82 Sport Coupe. There were 2,022 SC made in '82.


I had a car VERY similar to yours. Here's a picture of it before it was junked

Same colors, but the silver extends all the way to the bottom. On the GN, there is charcoal above and below the silver.
