What is body code AB? The 'B' is Ranger, what is A? Indian Blanket interior?

I thought there was a big VIN thread by Viperwolf that people could submit their vins to. I can't seem to find it...Viperwolf, you're a prolific poster so it's difficult to search your posts. :)

Just picked up my first bronco. I'll post pictures soon...it's a bit of a derelict...so somewhat embarrassing to post. :p

I can gather the info from the Bronco VIN decoder. I'll be purchasing a Marti report in a few days once I get the title in my name.

1976
VIN: U15GLB05490 MPV

GVWR: 4900lbs
Color : S
Type : U152
Body : AB
Trans: G
Axle : B8J
DSO : 72

Here's the Craigslist posting pic:

Thanks much, I couldn't seem to find the 'A' when searching the forums. It'll be interesting when the Marti report comes in.

Think of "A" as a code for ranger and the 2nd character as a code for the color. Same thing for explorer except it's 1st character will be "T".
