Not a real RS? Maybe the rear valance was replaced at some point in time.

very nice find

Nice find. That crushed hood is painful to look at.

Sent you a pm re: the other thread. Gave you my phone number. We need to talk.

Yes-Agree. RS wheel/pass.mirror/bumper guards... was pretty easy to transform any 69 into an RS back in the day but doubtful changing the wheel?

Well to be honest, I haven't done enough digging. I guess there's always a chance it could still be a real R/S. But according to my lengthy review of Camaro.org, it doesn't seem to have the other tell-tale signs. Guess it helps I got a pace car included in the purchase as those all came as an RS/SS!

Made this first dent in the storage unit included in the sale. Just trying to sort through the mess!

Kinda off-topic but what are those those tuff looking wheels on the big red Ford?!

Mark,

Those are from a brand called Black Rhino and they are known as their “Armory” wheels. And those are 37” tires :)

You probably haven't had a chance to check all of this stuff yet, but that 4 bolt big block is very interesting.

Love the cars AND your TRUCK! Been looking for the right 97 myself.
