1975 elky ss?

Is there anything in the vin to tell me if a 75 camino is an ss? I'm looking at a camino that the guy claims is an ss, it doesn't have ss stripes, the grille is gone, and I can't find any exterior emblems. It has swivel buckets, and full gauges instead of idiot lights. It also has the 454 with the turtle400 tranny.

Nope. No way to tell from the VIN

turtle400?????

Must be one slow A$$ truck.

SS is just badges a and stripes. Not even any speed parts like the SS models in the old days.
So they didn't even have anything special for bragging rights I had a '76 SS Elco, same deal.

All of that info is available on the homepage if you have any questions on VIN, RPO, gears, etc., but either a C or D will be in the VIN. Everyone's replies have been spot on, nothing more than an appearance package in those days. Now if the fifth digit is a "Y", then you know it's a factory 454 - which is not too common. Look here to completely decode it:
