Not that its done by chevrolet, but could be the people who converted it? He really doesnt know much about selling a car on ebay, the description is very vague.
the RPO code you'd be looking for is the WU8 code

FWIW, I emailed that guy to give him a heads-up that what he was selling didn't appear to be an SS because of several reasons and warned that the buyer could take possible legal action against him. Well, he hasn't emailed me back and hasn't changed his auction. Might be trying to purposely screw the buyer

They post Z28, SS so that if you search for Z28 up his car comes. The sticker could have been ripped off while power washing the engine bay. And youd be surprised what GM will do if you special order a vehicle. That includes different paint options. With that said, more than likely a fake with that starting price if the owner in fact went through all that trouble.
