Figuring out where a GSA car served is extremely difficult, if not impossible, without paperwork from when the fed govt agency that used the car auctioned it.

What that "110 Ordered from this DSO" means is there were 110 1990 LX 2-door sedans (all coupes, not just the 5.0L) ordered through DSO 83 (all orders through DSO 83, not just special order #0117).

We know of the following (so far) DSO 83 special orders from 1990 SSPs:

830033
830113
830114
830117
830115
830144

Your car (LF191649) is within a group of 86 consecutive P40E VINs, which contains (so far) special orders #0113, 0114, 0117, and 0115. Here is where special order #0117 falls:

1FACP40E1LF191639
1FACP40E8LF191640 - General Services Admin. (DSO #83-0114)
1FACP40EXLF191641
1FACP40E1LF191642
1FACP40E3LF191643
1FACP40E5LF191644
1FACP40E7LF191645
1FACP40E9LF191646
1FACP40E0LF191647
1FACP40E2LF191648
1FACP40E4LF191649 - General Services Admin. (DSO #83-0117)
1FACP40E0LF191650
1FACP40E2LF191651 - General Services Admin. (DSO #83-0117)
1FACP40E4LF191652
1FACP40E6LF191653
1FACP40E8LF191654
1FACP40EXLF191655
1FACP40E1LF191656 - General Services Admin. (DSO #83-0117)
1FACP40E3LF191657
1FACP40E5LF191658
1FACP40E7LF191659
1FACP40E3LF191660
1FACP40E5LF191661
1FACP40E7LF191662 - General Services Admin. (DSO #83-0117)
1FACP40E9LF191663
1FACP40E0LF191664
1FACP40E2LF191665
1FACP40E4LF191666
1FACP40E6LF191667
1FACP40E8LF191668 - F.B.I. (DSO #83-0115)
1FACP40EXLF191669

--------86-------

So we know that special order #0117 is at a minimum 14 VINS (LF191649 through LF191662) and a maximum of 27 VINs (possibly LF191641 through LF191667).

If we assume that all of the VINs within the consecutive P40E groups that those DSOs are in are all GSA orders, that puts the total at 90. So there are either other 1990 SSP GSA special orders that we have not discovered yet or there were some 2.3L LX coupes ordered through DSO 83 for that year.
