Did you happen to get passed by a blue GTO a month or so ago with PSU VA plates on 15S? I was coming back from the PSU/Illinois game and I'm pretty sure it was your car I passed. I remember saying to my GF how nice your car was and when I saw it in GMHTP I couldn't believe it.

I wanted to race but she didn't want me to taunt you

Back in June of this year, I was at the Camaro Nationals, which is held yearly in Carlisle, Pa. I noticed two fellows checking my car out and they approached me. One of them handed me his business card, he was the Editor of GM High Tech Performance magazine, and he said they would like to do an article about my SS. I was likw WOW! Out of the hundreds of cars at the event and they picked my car!
We left the fairgrounds and went to a location where they did a photo shoot and we even went out on the interstate where they directed me from their truck and took some more shots.

It would have been between I81 and Dillsburg. I'm sure you wouldn't specifically remember my car since there's nothing special about it. I was also at the Carlisle show and actually stayed in the same hotel that Rick Jensen was in. You definitely have a nice car.

It was from MBA products. They made a full line of underhood and interior billet pieces, which my SS is outfitted with. Unfortunately they are no longer in business, but I'm sure if you check around or on e-bay you can find something similar.

They do have a section in the magazine called "Street Heat" where you can submit a photo and a short write up about your car and try to get it in there.

Default SS decoding

Hey everyone, I just purchased a supposed 98 SS. Is there any vin decode that would determine if it is an actual SS or just a Z28?
