You didn't receive a build sheet. The only records Pontiac retained are dealer invoices used to bill the dealers and they only list cost/credit options beyond what was standard equipment on the vehicle. These are the records that PHS now has. Build sheets were used to assemble the vehicle at the factory and either left hidden in the car somewhere, or trashed at the end of the assembly line or during dealer PDI when the vehicle was delivered.

GM didn't start retaining detailed vehicle build information and RPO codes until the 1990 model year, which can still be accessed electronically on the GM Global Connect Dealer World mainframe system.

By the sound of it your 1980 Trans Am is a sparsely optioned car. My own 1971 Trans Am was only ordered with 4 options - deluxe interior, center console, AM front speaker radio and automatic transmission.
