Body:
OK, I looked at info for the Mustang GT and I see how things should
line up.

XP is the color code. For Mustangs it looks to be a two tone option.
AC is blank and the R has a Y value for Radio Delete.

The tranny decodes to 3 values. 2 is 5 speed manual. BB and BB
represent codes for front and rear springs.
