Additionally, from the actual '84 US Color guide, it appears that Targa & Cab models with 655 also had the secondary code "U1V9" (The V9 apparently designating a black top)
Please note this additional string from a 1983 Cab with Platinum Metallic (see the "U1V9" designation on the owner's manual image)...

As such, could the secondary "L999" designation actually have been for a unique cabriolet top fabric color other than black? |
Amazing information and greatly appreciate all the information. I took this pic and I can confirm it’s truly a platinum metallic color. I believe it may have been a custom top but since I’ve known the car the top has been brown.
