What does 1LE stand for?

What is the difference between a regular Z28/SS and a 1LE?

The 1Le is just a RPO code. They are all 6 speed cars, with no a/c, no power anything, cloth, and I think no radio. I also think that they have thicker sway bars and better shocks.

they have a radio, the tape deck to be exact, and the crap *** speakers.
That reminds me I gotta finish putting my bose stuff in. the crappy sound is killing me.

the 1le SS is the best one but really, I think it is the lightest one.

there are some 1le autos.

96 up had AC standard.


the difference is they are more a performance car, cause there are no options that dont help it go faster in one way or another (with the exception of AC in the 96 up ones) they get better sway bars and stuff too.
