well first off you got your (78-80)witch is gen3 then you got (81-88)witch is your gen4(the best by the way)and in that 4th gen you got the SS(83-88) and in 87-88 they did the taillight,bumper,spoiler restyle but if you are not sure if the car you are looking at is a real SS there's a couple of thing's that are difrent between them so i am sure you will figure it out ! if not post a couple of pics and i will try to help man
