95blazerSS is on a distinguished road
Default 1995 blazer SS (did they exsist?)

Ok so I picked up a 95 blazer SS, hence my name, it was a steal of a price at $500 running and driving just needed rear brakes, tires, and a good cleaning. My plan is to clean it up and sell it but I'd like to know if it is a true SS or just some aftermarket badges. I was told it was a true SS truck and it appears to be, but with no paperwork to verify it I'm skeptical. If you guys have any info or know of websites where i could get info that would be great, Thanks, Brett. and dont send me this little fella cuz this is how I found your guys' site, thanks again

Found this info online:

The Chevrolet S-10 SS was a high performance version of the S-10, introduced in 1994. Fewer than 3000 SS's were produced yearly on average. When introduced, the SS was sold in only three colors: Onyx Black, Summit White, and Apple Red. The SS was discontinued in 1998. In 1999, it was replaced by the S-10 Xtreme.

A 4.3 liter V6 (which was optional on regular S-10s) was the primary engine used in the SS version, producing between 180 and 195 hp. The SS included lowered suspension, cosmetic changes such as a different grille, body-colored bumpers, 16" wheels, and other sporty touches. All SS versions were regular cab model. 1997 is the only year a stepside version was offered due to suspension fitment problems in earlier models. The SS option package was only available with an automatic transmission and 3.42 posi-traction rear-end.

That is a quote from Wikipedia and it is quite clearly talking about the S-10 SS. The OP says he has a Blazer SS which, to the best of my knowledge, never existed. If there are SS badges or decals on it, somebody just stuck them on it.

Yeah, there is only a s10 ss, not a blazer version from all my research online. Sorry if I was confusing anyone, sounds like it was made with decals and whatnot.
