Thanks Shadow, the guy i bought it from said there is a stamp under the body and he said there was an R on the stamp that indicated it being an SS. I dont know anything about this or how to confirm but maybe someone here has heard of this?

R does not mean SS on the frame or under the body, not heard that one before. Things to look for are the round guages, 12 bolt rearend, power disc brakes to name a few. If there is a build sheet it would be for an Arlington built car usually under the sound deadner on the drivers side. Some of the other factory assembly plants put them in the springs of the back seat, glued onto the door panel, or like mine on top of the gas tank to just name a few places. Build sheets were never intended to be kept in the car, they were for the assembly worker to put the car together and then throw them away. Stills sounds like you got a great deal and just enjoy the car, Have a great weekend.

Lol

Have a great day

At your age an older guy could be 29.
