Ever wanted to get your hands on a police-spec muscle car? Your time has come. The Pick of the Day is a 1994 Chevrolet Camaro B4C SSP coupe listed for sale on ClassicCars.com by a private seller in Albuquerque, New Mexico.
“Original owner; this vehicle is in showroom condition,” the listing says.
While largely unassuming from the exterior, there is something special going on behind the scenes with this fourth-generation Camaro. Or should we say, “Cop-maro.”
The B4C Special Service Package (SSP) consisted of high-performance equipment that was usually reserved for police pursuit vehicles. Among the features were a 275-horsepower, 5.7-liter LT1 V-8, a heavy-duty suspension (with larger sway bars), four-wheel disc brakes, high-output alternator, and heavy-duty cooling systems for both the engine and the transmission. The car was built for stealthiness and speed.
Finished in Medium Quasar Blue Metallic, the simple exterior features fog lamps, quad headlights, black-finished side mirrors, and an integrated rear spoiler with a built-in third brake lamp. The manufacturer information sticker in the door jamb says that the car was built by General Motors of Canada in April 1994.
The cockpit (which looks immaculate in the photos) is upholstered in two-tone charcoal and gray cloth, and features include bucket seats, power windows, power-adjustable driver seat, air conditioning, cruise control, Delco stereo, power hatchback release, floor mats, and electric rear window defogger.
SSP-equipped Camaros could be optioned either with a 4L60E four-speed automatic or a T-56 six-speed manual transmission. This car will appeal to driving enthusiasts thanks to its six-speed manual. Oh yeah, and it has only 10,000 miles on the odometer. The pictures corroborate the reading; even the engine bay and underbody look immaculate.
When it came to hot pursuits, the SSP Camaro was a strong performer. While not “advertising” such a fact, the car had essentially the same performance credentials as a Z28. One of the ads for the Z28, by the way, said, “Yes, we are talking about rocket science here.”
Chevrolet knew it had a modern muscle car on its hands, and the police-spec SSP (especially in Quasar Blue instead of red) was the perfect sleeper for civic duty.
“Truly a rare find,” the listing concludes.
The asking price is $35,000; it will include the window sticker, owner’s manual, and original set of wheels and tires.
