If you are very lucky the build slip will still be taped to the top of glovebox or folded and stuck between the vent tube and fill tube somewhere along that space at the gas tank. It's a slip of teletype paper a couple of inches high with a line or two of numbers & codes for the car as equipped.

Feel gently on top of the glovebox and if it's there or at the tank use care in trying to remove because it will be quite delicate. If the slip is gone, you might still come across it somewhere but don't count on it. Some have found them just stuffed in odd places but if not found, I don't know of any other official way to know.

For paint, you might find a spot that has been sprayed and continuously covered to enable a match. Overspray under the door panels might be an example. The upholstery might have some of the original coloring and texture left under the seats but if it has been redone, possibly that would be gone.
