1971 valve covers have a rubber oil fill plug and are machined different at the flanges. The stock rear spoiler for a 71 is the low spoiler. The tall spoiler was an option (COPO 9676 I think).

In regards to the spoiler, my ever-failing memory seems to recall that the tall 3 pc rear spoiler was only a COPO option in 1970 and early in the 71 model year....by mid 71 production, the tall 3 pc spoiler became standard. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img]

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

Bill, I believe that you are correct. Also I don't see why an early to mid '71 couldn't have 70 style valve covers?

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

They milked the &quot;optional&quot; tall spoiler through the 71 model year, the standard spoiler was the one piece and ordering the D80 OPTION got you the tall rear spoiler at $46.35 extra. If you ordered a Z28 and didn't specify the D80 option, you got the front and the one piece rear for no charge.

In 1972 the spoiler was optional (now the 3 piece &quot;tall&quot; spoiler) and the car with option Z28 DID NOT include the spoilers ... RPO D80 cost $77 and included both front and rear spoilers, the front being shipped off the car for dealer installation.

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

It could, and it would be understandable for someone to install them because the 71 valve covers are very difficult to find but I doubt this car had 1970 valve covers at mid-year. My 71 01D Norwood car had 71 valve covers.

No one has mentioned the incorrect shift knob? Or smog?

The COPO code is 9796

I have never seen a real post 1970 Z COPO, all of the build sheets I have seen group into mid 1970. Maybe Phil could shed some light on this? Also, as the story goes about the racing (if true), they would have only been produced for that Houston race time frame.

I also thought by mid 71 you got the tall spoiler as D80. Could be wrong, but what I remember.

. Your answer is 100% correct. It's mentioned just this way in the GM heritage notes in the 71 section.

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

Still available.

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

----Black/white stripe, deluxe interior, &quot;RS&quot; Z/28. This is the epitome of the 70-up Z/28s IMHO. Especially in this unbelieveable condition! I had a 73 that appeared identical at 10 feet but was just a pretender with its (basicly) L-82. Why is this car still for sale? Mystifying......Bill S

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

Hard to believe that the original owner was still at the same address.

He autocrossed and drag raced this Z28, which he special ordered.

BTW it is Sold, and will be at MCACN this fall.

Stephano, what is the new back on the market price? My boss is looking for one, maybe not at 50K, but ya never know, I would have to talk him into the upgrade from what he is thinking. I want to pass this on to him, as it looks great.

Re: 1971 Camaro Z28 Original Unrestored 4 speed Black
 

Sorry guys forgot to post the new price. It's $55,000.00. The current owner added T/A radials so it comes with two sets of wheels and tires.
