Default Re: SS/RS or RS/SS ????

The one I did up ten years ago and kept for about three years was always referred to by me as "RS/SS".

Of course, as you know, we Canucks always say or pronounce things a little different

Technically the SS option should proseed the RS option. So SS/RS is technically correct, but I like RS/SS.

I've always thought of it in a decending order of importance. .

The SS or Z-28 options are first being an 'absolute necessity' and the RS is really an 'un-necessary' glitz option....so SS/RS & Z-28/RS! .
Tomato..tomatto, potato..potatto....as long as the SS is there, call it what you like and ! .

"Tomato..tomatto, potato..potatto....as long as the SS is there, call it what you like ! ".


Sounds like this is the general concensus and it is a matter of personal preference.

Someone please refresh my memory. If RPO Z/27 designates Super Sport package what is the RPO designation for the Rally Sport package?

Definitely RS/SS. I don't think I've ever heard anyone call one an SS/RS til today...SS/RS? nope, that doesn't even sound right.

Be careful as SS RPO's change in different years and models. .
Isn't RS Z-22....for '69 anyway? .

I vote RS/SS simply because of how Chevrolet marketed the "SS" Camaro in '67. My '67 RS/SS was badged "SS350" on the grill and horn cover so it would make more sense to say RS/SS350 than SS350/RS.
