how to tell if it is a real B4C

My neighbor is selling a 1991 Camaro. He says it is a former cop car and i want to know if it is a B4C or just a Z28 that some city used. It has AC, 305TPI, 5 speed, 4 wheel disc brakes. It has none of the badges on the side and back of the car that would normally say RS or Z28. It has a Z28 wing, but the guys son may have put that on. I am going to look at it tommorrow and would like to know if there is anything specifically i should look for to see if it is a B4C. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

just ask him to show you the list of RPO codes, it should be one of the codes listed, though I could not tell you which option it is.

It should have RS badges and have a 305 or 350TPI motor, posi rear end. As stated already, check the RPO codes in the console. The B4C code should be on there.

ha I'm feel dumb now. I didn't even think about the fact that the B4C is the RPO code to look for.
