Chevrolet Celebrity — A-body (1982–1990)

The Celebrity was Chevrolet's front-drive A-body midsize car: a coupe and a sedan from 1982, a wagon from 1984, and a wagon only in 1990. Every row below comes from the GM Heritage Center kit for its year: the MVMA specification forms for 1982–1990 (power teams, chassis tables and, from 1984, the optional-equipment weight pages) and the 1989 dealer order guide bound into that year's kit. The 1982 and 1983 kits have no option pages, so for those years only powertrain, suspension and emissions codes are known. Paint and trim codes are not listed: only the 1989 order guide shows them, as two-digit color numbers and four-character trim combinations rather than RPO codes.
