It is easy enough to change from one to the other, so don't go by that alone to figure the model year. Quickest and easiest way to figure that out is the model year designator (10th character) in the VIN.

E = 1984
F = 1985
G = 1986

An '84 SVO VIN would end with EF and six numbers.
An '85 SVO VIN would end with FF and six numbers.
An '86 SVO VIN would end with GF and six numbers.

An '85½ SVO VIN would end with a number of 230115 or higher.
Thank you for the info.
