build sheet or you are screwed

no RPO sticker til 84 in cars

i have the same problme with you

x2

as i have two 82's

ones a vin H 305 trans am without disc rear but with the largest sway bars and power bulge hood

and now i have a Z28 with vin H 305 that is badged inside and out with z28,


but since they are 82's..... theres no sticker or buildsheet to prove either one is what they are

screwed really

i and many others with pre-84 cars know how it feels..
we sympathize,,


good luck

think they could tell me it is a WS6 without the disc rear ?

it has the WS6 bars and such
but drum 2.73 rear, LG4, 200C,
the PMD cloth interior color matched to exterior, light blue/dark blue

thanks

good luck with your camaro, hope you end up finding out more on it somehow
