I've had the car since high school (1981). I bought the car in horrible shape. All floors were rotted and the original motor was missing. What a tragedy because it appears to be an RS/SS 350 Convertible. It has deluxe interior which is ripped. SS Gas Cap and SS Horn Button - all showing signs of wear & tear. I stripped the paint down and found the original bumblebee stripe around the nose. It has hideaway headlights (electric) which are broken.
I'm convinced this is an original SS/RS and NOT a clone. My logic is for the reasons mentioned above. I beleive when I purchased it back in 1981 was way before anyone could purchase SS emblems and all the clone parts that are now available.
I'm missing the buildsheet, cowl tag and Protecto Plate. My guess is someone stole the cowl tag long ago. At any rate I think I'm in a tough spot to prove that this car is a real SS/RS.
How can I get information?
