Well folks looks like it's getting closer for time to pick up the car.The guy will let take the car this weekend and I will pay him on Tuesday.Kinda talked the wife into it before the Vette sells.I guess she is still mesmerized from our daughter getting married last weekend.lol.I am getting more info each day about the car.It is a X11 with the RS pkg according to him it is a SS with factory frt disc brakes.Really doesn't matter looks like it might be a fun ride....

X11...that makes more sense. Also increases the odds of it being a legit RS/SS.
Congrats on soon being an owner of the best year ever!

RS is an Appearance pkg only and could be ordered for any model.
SS is a Performance Pkg of either 350 or 396, THM400 or Muncie, 12-bolt rear axle, multiple leaf rear springs, factory dual exhaust - check for 4X5 steel plate welded on drvr side frame rail behind drvr rear tire - tailpipe hangar plate, limited slip diff sticker on trunk lid, full size spare tire, for starters, 37A alternator, for starters.
SS badging over RS badging.
Good year, at least a First Gen.

Good luck with the new journey - enjoy it.
