Power windows on a 396 4 speed built Jan 17th is what I know from memory on the tag. WOW!

Okay here's a go at the numbers

style 73617 is a Beaumont Custom, 8 cylinder, 2 door hardtop. ( I'm sure others will chime in as I seem to remember that the early Sport Deluxe were a sub series of the Beaumont Custom, only later did they carry their own style number which would be 73817 )
body 33512 is just a consecutive production number
Paint L = Tropic Turquoise metallic
Trim 393 is ivory and only available with the sport option
A31 = electric windows ( I believe )
A51 I don't have a listing for
L34 should be 396
M20 = 4 speed transmission
and 1-1-17 as stated above is first shift on January 17th

This is a special find and certainly worthy of the few bucks to get the GMVVS documents for.

A51 is the Sport Option which in this case would be a Sport Deluxe.
