Can you settle an argument?

ive been told also that to tell if its a true rear spoiler car or not unlock the trunk, if it raises by itselfs it was a factory rear spoiler car if it just sits there it wasnt.

[D.Heerdt]

true D-80 rear spoiler cars had different spring bars for the trunk. i believe one was a little thicker to help with the added weight of the spoiler. this is easier to verify after Nov 68 built cars as the D-80 spoiler option was listed on the cowl tag. it was not listed on the earlier 'half tag cars" .

Most 69 Z/28's did not receive the D-80 option. it was not a standard option until after the january 69 build date ( IIRC). most of these cars have been restored with the D-80 option even though it was not factory equipment,.

*side note - the ZL2 cowl induction hood was not standard equipment on the Z/28 either. which seem to go hand in hand with most restorations. 20,602 Z-28s were built in 69 of which 40% probably recieved these 2 option together. but now most restored Z's have both options.. shame really.

I believe the rubber ft bumper was called an ENDURA bumper.

Any camaro with THE FACTORY ordered spoiler package will have D80 on the cowl tag. The reason I say this IS because many camaros were ordered without the spoiler package and then the package was available as a DEALER INSTALLED option.

Incorrect. On the 1969 Camaros the D80 spoiler option did not appear on the cowl tag until March- April cars. My 02D (4th week of Feb.) Camaro does not have it, but was built with that option.

I had a 69 RS/Z-28 back in the late 70's to the mid 80's . I was able to talk to the original owner. I tracked him down from the gas charge receipts stuffed way under the rear carpet & under the seats. My car had the X-33 code stamped on the cowl tag. As stated in a prior post, my car did not come with a cowl hood. It did have the Z-28 rear bumper guards & RS features. I wish I still had that car.

[Burner]

I have not taken the car a part yet to look for a build sheet, it is pretty much still intack from the dash back, have another 68 that has 4 piston disk brakes and came with a inline 6 and 3 on the tree, so who knows,

[cicero819]

Ok yes the bumperettes were suppose to come with the rsZ28 but you could order them removed from the factory. I spent 8yrs restoring my 69Z28 which I bought from the estate of the original owner in their barn. Mine was ordered with factory deleted bumper guards and rear spoiler(front spoiler was left on) no radio but upgraded interior(he was planning on racing it but blew the engine). Divorce forced the sale to a gentleman who never drives it and has built a shrine to it. These car were met to be driven hard.lol Claude
