Completely lost on fender tag!!!

[rolling_Thunder]

So I like to think I am pretty well versed on fender tags - but I am at a complete loss on this car (1969 Coronet 500)

Special order paint "99 99" on fender tag and I am assuming it is butterscotch based on some paint chips under the red repaint.

The confusing part is V39... denoting "special order convertible top" --- does anyone have ANY clue on this as I have only seen black or white tops and this one is throwing me for a loop and I can not find any reference to it anywhere online.

Cheers

Could it be Y39 sales bank?

Kinda odd with spec order paint.

Sometimes the top codes aren't properly accounted for? Like a white top car was also a white convert top car ,if it was a convert

I mean it looks like a "V" to me - plus it is a convertible so it would need some code for the top on the fender tag. I looked over on fender tag decoders and they do list V39 as a "special order convertible top" - I would just have no idea what that means - different top material? different color? I looked elsewhere in factory literature and only see white and black tops available across the mopar line up so I was curious if anyone here knew anything about it.

Y39 is special order, not sales bank. This would make sense with the custom paint color and top.

And comparing to a tag of mine, it appears to be a Y as opposed to a V.

So, special order car with special order paint, but not special order top?
