1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
Is there a difference between the 67, 68, 69 Camaro trunk lids? I know they interchange but are they identical?
|
Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
No, If im not mistaken something is different on the backside of it.
|
Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
Don't the 68 and 9's have the wholes for the spoiler studs underneath?
|
Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
Not the repro lids or originals. They had to be drilled into the lid to mount the spoiler. I agree with Barnfound. I think that the underskin is a little different.

Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
The shapes of the openings on the back side are different and the date codes are in different places.

Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
That's what I thought. Thanks for the info.

Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
I think there are something like 3 different 68-69's and the 67's had different trunk emblems so the holes are different.

Here is a '67 decklid. Only had holes in teh underframe to mount the emblem, none for the spoiler.

This is off the top of my head, so it might not be exact and I can't remember the third 67 variation:
67 - no emblem holes - with emblem holes 68 - spoiler access holes 69 - " " - with tabs around outside - no tabs |
Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
There was a great article in Muscle Car Review that showed the differences in the 3 '69 trunk lids. Brian Henderson provided the information for this article. If I remember correctly it was about restoration mistakes for '69 Camaros. I can try to dig up the article and scan it if anyone is interested.

I know July cars did and I believe June as well. |

Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
did they use a different lid if you ordered a luggage rack?
|
Re: 1969 Camaro Trunk Lid Question
I believe the luggage rack was a dealer add-on, so the decklid would have been the same.
