Is it a genuine VN SS Group A???

[zero2hundredin7]

I just recently got given a VN Commodore V8 and i was told that its a Group A, it needs a bit of work done to it. I have a passion for my commodores, and know quite a bit about them.
However, I want to know how to make sure it is a genuine Group A and not just something thats been modifed to look like one, what are the specifications about a Group A to tell the difference, i tried to find out info on the net but its not giving me what i want to know!

If you have any information or any websites that would be of use, it would be greatly appriciated

225 wide tyres are a start.
look at the compliance plate and check the coades and maybe ring hoden to ask.

VN Group A SSs only came in Duriff red. There were 302 made, 2 of which were repainted by a dealer for the Bathurst promo (win a car for you and your mate or something)
All were manual with the ZF 6 speed (one auto specially built for a guy with one leg)


ALOT of the parts on the car were model specific, so that should be the giveaway.


Post pics and we'll be able to tell for sure!
