1976 Cadillac Eldorado

[FordGuyatGM]

Hi all. Does anyone know where I can get a vin decoded for a 1976 Eldorado? I have spent a decent amount of time online this morning and I'm striking out. I'm trying to find the original carpet RPO code. Thanks in advance!

Back then the codes were on a label either in the trunk or the glove box. 99.999999% its discontinued.

Thanks for the replies. I was able to get what I needed from the body plate.
