LOWMILE not to hi-jack but I was always told WS4 was replaced by the WS6 on the tags when that package was released is that true?

not all WS6 cars have WS6 on the body tag.   I have 2 Ohio  WS6 79 T/A's  with WS4 on the body tag but the build sheet has WS6

WS4 is the RPO Code for Trans Am   like the W50 is the Formula

here is my build sheet.   I have seen the  big WS4 in the lower left of the sheet read WS6 .  and you can see in the list its a WS6 T/A Mark IV Performance Package

I have no clue why GM put WS6 on some body tags,  because the WS6 is the RPO Performance Package upgrade.
