carfax wouldnt know if it was an SS, they were just converted Z28's in 96-97 IIRC. also the only thing SS about it is the hood and air box, its got 97 Z28 rims, no ss spoiler, the emblems are in the wrong place on the front fenders, just a z28 with a hood and SS badges

I dunno if there is an RPO code for it or not, but the only SS options it has are the hood and airbox. Doesn't have the spoiler, and the badges were obviously added later, since they are mounted too low (either that or the car was wrecked and the body shop reinstalled them wrong).

Identifying a Fourth Generation SS:
Starting in '96 an SS could be ordered again. RPO code R7T was available from dealers but was a non-Chevy modification to a Z28 by SLP Engineering. In 1998 the SS RPO code changed to WU8 but was still a non-Chevy modification done by SLP. In 1996 and 1997 SS's received the LT1 engine and from 1998 to 2002 they received the LS1 engine which was the same engine the Z28's in those years received but with the SS version producing more horse power. The SS option bumped the Z28 350 engine hp up over 300hp. The RPO codes list or Service Identification Label can be found in the glove box or possibly on the door. If the RPO code for the SS option is not on the cars Service Identification Label then it was not originally an SS. Check the beginning of our RPO codes section for information on what to do if your Fourth Gen Camaro doesn't have a Service Identification Label.

I sent him a message telling him why it's probably not a real SS, and he wrote back and said thanks. He also said the reserve is set at $3,500.
